BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE 



Potier (P.) — Continued. 



The author has written his rules anduntes in 

 Latin, while the etiuiviilents of the Mohawk

M. Pred'honime, in order to set aside any 

 doubt of the authenticity of the manuscript, has 

 kindly furnished uie a photographic reproduc- 

 tion of a page of manuscript in Pere Potter's 

 handwriting and bearing his signature a num- 

 ber of times — a Registro des en fans des Frau<jois 

 baptises a la Mission des Huroiis de La Poiute 

 du Montreal, 1762 ; this is clearly iu tin; same 

 han<lwriting as that of the grammar. 



In the Historical Magazine, vol. 2, p. 198, a 

 manuscript Huron grammar of 105 pp. [11. ?], by 

 the Rev. Peter Potier, is described as follows: 



"It .><eeiiis based on Ohaurnouot's, many 

 phrases being identical ; but much, if not most, 

 of it is new. It is methodical, well arranged, di- 

 vided into chapters, and, in fact, a work which 

 no time should be lost in putting into a perma- 

 nent shape. After the grammar are some 

 pages not numbered, containing questions for 

 one learning, a schemeof relationship with the 

 various possessive adjectives, an abridgment 

 (if the Racines, and, curiously enough, a census 

 of the Huron vilhige iu 1745, with a very val- 

 uable list of Indian tribes, English and Fren( h 

 towns, etc., with their names iu Huron and 

 French. " 



No indication is given of thi^ whereabouts of 

 themanuscript thus described, audit is possible 

 it is the same as or a copy of that bandied by 

 me.
