Siouan References in Reprint (Woccon & Tutelo)

Images of a manuscript vocabulary of Tutelo taken by Hale and held in the
National Anthropological Archives are available online through the
Occaneechi-Saponi website at:

http://www.occaneechi-saponi.org/tutelo-saponi/LRDP/index.shtml

There is also a link from that page to the Early Canadiana Online edition of
Hale's The Tutelo Language :

http://www.canadiana.org/cgi-bin/ECO/mtq?id=f1d901e4ba&doc=04399

The ECO collection has a lot of nice stuff for Algonquianists but the Siouan
pickings seem a little slim.  Maybe I just don't know what I'm looking for
yet.

> Hale, Horatio.  2001 (1883).  The Tutelo Language.  109 pp.
