Scope and Contents
Scope and Contents
Handwritten, mainly by copyists, but a few pages in Powell's hand. Although the first page has been marked in red by Hewitt, "Huron Migrations, Quebec to Indian Territory," this only applies to pages 1-3, and the main manuscript is a version of Powell's paper, "Wyandot Government," published in 1st Annual Report, Bureau of American Ethnology, 1881. See also Manuscript Number 1344 for two copies of a shorter draft covering the same material.
