"This manuscript is, in characters, identical with the Manuscript Troauo 
and the Dresden Codex. It is the most perfect of the throe in regard to the 
beauty and delicacy of the writing ; but it is also the one that had snfl'ered most. 
But 50 copies were published." — Brasseur de Bourbourg. 
Dr. Brinton, in his Introduction to the " Study of the Manuscript Troano," 
says: "This fragment — for it is unfortunately nothing more — was discovered in 
1859 by Prof. Leon de Eosny among a mass of old papers in the National Library. 
It consists of eleven leaves, twenty-two pages, each 9 inches long and 5^ inches 
wide. It unquestionably belongs to the Maya manuscripts. Its origin is un- 
known." 
This manuscript is commonly known as the "Codex Peresianus," from the 
name "Perez" found on the wrapper. See Rosny (Leon de). No. SSbOd.

cluding portion of a Roman Catholic catechism iu the Mohawk hmguage. The 
heading on p. 9, "loutatkentsiokh.is," means "Confirmation," literally "anoint-
