"The American Antiquarian and Oriental Journal," October 1881 (Vol. IV, No. 1), published by Thomas H. Bush, Chicago. The work has articles on prehistoric peoples throughout the world, and sections concerning correspondance, editorials, linguistic notes, recent intelligence, general review, and book reviews. One of the linguistic notes is on Shoshone-derived dialects in southern California with brief mention of the languages of Indians at the missions San Gabriel, San Fernando, San Juan Capistrano and San Luis Rey. With much rubbing, edge tears, creases, and soiling to the wrappers and edge tears to generally clean pages, the condition is fair.
