content: "Notes on the Cherokee Language" refers to Cherokee grammar and is primarily copied from The Cherokee Messenger, Volume 1, Nos. 1, 2, 6, 7, and 9, 1844-45, and from S. A. Worcester in H. R. Schoolcraft, History, Condition and Prospects of the Indian Tribes of the United States, Philadelphia, 1852, Volume II, pages 443-456. The separate slip of notes on the syllabary was found in the Bureau of American Ethnology library copy of The Cherokee Messenger in 12/1969, and appears to be in the same handwriting.
