content: Fragments of handwritten Meskwaki (Fox) syllabic texts and English translations. One page of Meskwaki text was authored by Bill Leaf. Five other Meskwaki texts are by an unidentified author. The text beginning "di sa wa tti" is a continuation of a story in MS 2768. The translations are by Truman Michelson and are of Meskwaki texts not present in MS 2769. One translation is of pages 5 (partial) and 6-7 of an unidentified text. The other is a partial translation of "The man who was blessed by a buffalo and half snake."
