content: Mooneyʹs note states: "the Upper Cherokee vocabulary was originally obtained in the 1885 & 1886 at Washington, D.C. from N.J. Smith (Tsálatihĭ) chief of the East Cherokees, & revised on the reservation in 1887 with the help of his brother, Ross Smith [...] The Middle Cherokee vocabulary--written or underlined with red ink in the second column--was obtained in 1887 on the reservation from James Blythe (Tĭskwánĭ), the official interpreter, & his brother David, both natives of the reservation."
