Captain Arthur T. Lee, the second commander of Fort Davis, painted many scenes of the fort and its countryside. One scene shows a woman known as Maggie beside her kitchen with tents and other surrounding structures. She and other camp followers labored to support the garrison at this frontier post, and women endured many of the same hardships as the soldiers.
