 of the Potawatomy, Miami, Delaware,

Manuscript in possession of the late Col. John 

 Mason Brown, Louisville, Ky. Recorded in a 

 blank book 6J by 8 inches in size, probably the 

 orderly book of the company commanded by 

 Captain Preston. The date, January 29, 1793, 

 appears on the inside of the cover. 



The Potawatomy vocabulary covers three 

 pages, and consists of 72 words and phrases, in- 

 cluding tlie numerals 1-9. This is followed by 

 geographical names in the Miami, which cover 

 one page and give the Indian designation of 

 the Ohio, Kentucky, Kanawha, and other riv- 

 ers, sixteen in all. The following page is occu- 

 pied by a similar list in Delaware, and this is 

 followed by a list of words and phrases in the 

 Miami, occupying six pages and containing 139 

 words and phrases. 



Following the last mentioned is a vocabulary 

 of the Shawanee language, with certain remarks 

 on pronunciation of the aspirates and accentu- 

 ation of syllables. The first page bears date 

 February 7, 1796, at Greenville. There are 

 nineteen pages of this vocabulary. The Eng- 

 lish words are arranged alphabetically, or ap- 

 proximately so, followed by the Indian equiva- 

 lents, amounting to 481 words and phrases.

Following this Shawanee vocabulary is a sin- 

 gle page of Cherokee vocabulary consisting of 

 20 words. 



A copy of the manuscript is in the library of 

 the Bureau of Ethnology. 



The sixteen geographic names in Miami and 

 Delaware found in this manuscript were pub- 

 lished in The Virginias, vol. 6, pp. 166-167, Staun- 

 ton, Va, 1885, 4°. (Pilling.) The editor of that 

 periodical, Col. Jed. Hotchkiss, then submitted 

 a copy to Dr. J. Hammond Trumbull, who sup-

 of the Indian names. The vocabulary with 

 Dr. Trumbull's notes was then reprinted in The 

 Industrial South, vol. 6, pp. 19-20, Eichraond,
