4.' The Blackfoot Language — A small phrase book was published 

 as a money speculation by C. Lanning, but it is full of mistakes and 

 of vciy little use. Nearly all the missionaries have MSS. vocabularies 

 for their own use. I can only speak positively of my own work on 

 Grammar and Dictionary which I have been working at for years, 

 and will take thi-ee years at least to finish.
