Black Kettle
Why did you replace the photo? When you have an article about "a man," you want a photo of "the man." Ideally you want a portrait of that man to which the article about. Now, you know you can have more than one photo in an article? Check Harry S. Truman, there are eight photos of Truman in that article. I know that the portrait of Black Kettle was not very good, but it was a photo of him.
