content: Anthropology catalogue ledger book lists pipes E88638 - 42 as transferred from the Bureau of American Ethnology in December 1883 with no collector listed. E88638 was listed as Devil's Lake in the ledger book, and E88639 and E88640 have also been listed the same way on their catalogue cards. Very speculatively, some or all of these pipes could have come from Walter James Hoffman? P. XXXI of the Bureau of American Ethnology 5th Annual Report notes that Hoffman in the Autumn of 1883 "... visited the Ottawa, Ojibwa, and Pottawatomi Indians of Northern Michigan and the Sisseton and Mdewakantanwan bands of Dakota in Minnesota and Dakota ..."
