content: Meskwaki (Fox) texts and kinship notes collected by Truman Michelson in Tama, Iowa. Four of the texts are by Alfred Kiyana in Meskwaki syllabary. The translated titles are "When Indians captured horses a long time ago," "The two youths who fasted who were brothers," "The one who runs fast," and "War dance." A fifth text is by Kiwatewa (Mrs.Paquane) and is on adoption feasts. These texts are accompanied by English translations dictated by Harry Lincoln and in Truman Michelson's hand. There are also 3 pages of notes on kinship from Annie Kiosatuck.
