ARCHIVES 



The largest collection of Indian photographs acquired by the 

 Bureau in many years was obtained during the past year when the 

 Library of Congress gave permission to copy pictures submitted long 

 ago for copyright purposes. These pictures, made more than 50 

 years ago, show many famous Indians whose portraits are new to the 

 collections. Another group of 50 rare Indian photographs was re- 

 ceived from Eddie Herman, a Sioux Indian of Hot Springs, S. Dak. 



The manuscript material in the archives of the Bureau has been 

 used by research workers both by personal visits for consultation and 

 by correspondence. 



A new manuscript of 2,380 pages, in the Fox Indian language, 

 consisting of a vocabulary, with grammatical and linguistic notes, 

 was donated to the Bureau by Miss Ella A. Merritt of Washington. 

 This work was compiled by the late James Brannin, formerly connected 

 with the United States Navy during the time (1935-42) he was 

 stationed near the Fox Indians in Wisconsin.
