Abstract

1. A number of items such as prayers, hymns, and translations from the Bible, as well as some collections of songs and 'tales' (though not 'texts'), have not been cited in this Checklist. They are to be found listed in the second edition of G. P. Murdock's Ethnographic Bibliography of North America (New Haven, 1953) and/or in the Newberry Library's two volume Bibliographical Check List of North and Middle American Indian Linguistics in the Edward E. Ayer Collection (Chicago, 1941). Since the publication of C. F. Voegelin and Z. S. Harris's Index to the Franz Boas Collection of Materials for American Linguistics (Language Monograph 22, LSA, 1945), the Library of the American Philosophical Society, which houses the Boas Collection, has acquired additional MSS; Morris Swadesh has reclassified the material, and the new Index, which has been revised by John Yegerlehner, is being incorporated in John F. Freeman's work-in-progress, a Guide to the Library's complete Indian MS collection. Roman numerals after a title-e.g., AA, VII. 68-70 (1894)-indicate old series volume numbers; Arabic numerals-e.g., AA, 11. 13-26 (1909)-indicate new series. 2.
