Greetings, discovered an 1866 T.N. Hibben & Co. : "Dictionary of the
Chinook Jargon
..The Indian Trade Language of the Pacific Coast".
This pre-dates the previously believed first edition of 1871. Looks also
to borrow from Gibbs, but I did notice punctuation differences on the
Lord's Prayer in English, but have not thoroughly compared all text.
Regards,
N. Murray
