Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-h
Scope and Contents
Baraga has decided to write his Dictionary only in 2 languages, Indian and English, omitting the French. He has 3 reasons: 1. The Dictionary is connected with the Grammar which is only in English and Indian. 2. It will take him 15 months to write it, but fully 2 years if he would add French to it. 3. A third language would increase the printing expenses by a third. Baraga likes to know soon if he is doing right. :: III-2-h A.L.S. English 1p. 8vo
