Soc._, 1836, p. 358. The next fourteen lists are, with the exception of the Micmac, from the same collection. The meanings are largely from Trumbull, _op. cit._ [300] Schoolcraft, _Archives of Aboriginal Knowledge_, Vol. II. p. 211. [301] Schoolcraft, _Archives of Aboriginal Knowledge_, Vol. V. p. 587. [302] In the Dakota dialects 10 is expressed, as here, by a word signifying that the fingers, which have been bent down in counting, are now straightened out. [303] Boas, _Fifth Report B.A.A.S._, 1889. Reprint, p. 61. [304] Boas, _Sixth Report B.A.A.S._, 1890. Reprint, p. 117. Dr. Boas does not give the meanings assigned to 7 and 8, but merely states that they are derived from 2 and 3. [305] _Op. cit._, p. 117. The derivations for 6 and 7 are obvious, but the meanings are conjectural. [306] Boas, _Sixth Report B.A.A.S._, 1889. Reprint, pp. 158, 160. The meanings assigned to the Tsimshian 8 and to Bilqula 6 to 8 are conjectural. [307] Hale, _Ethnography and Philology_, p. 619. [308] _Op. cit._, _loc. cit._ [309] Hale, _Ethnography and Philology_, p. 619. [310] Mueller, _Sprachwissenschaft_, II. i. p. 436. [311] _Op. cit._, IV. i. p. 167. [312] _Op. cit._, II. i. p. 282. [313] _Op. cit._, II. i. p. 287. The meanings given for the words for 7, 8, 9 are conjectures of my own. [314] Mueller, _Sprachwissenschaft_, II. i. p. 297. [315] Pott, _Zaehlmethode_, p. 90.

[318] Adam, Lucien, _Congres Internationale des Americanistes_, 1877, Vol. II. p. 244. [319] Mueller, _Sprachwissenschaft_, II. i. p. 395. I can only guess at the meanings of 6 to 9. They are obviously circumlocutions for 5-1, 5-2, etc. [320] _Op. cit._, p. 438. Mueller has transposed these two scales. See Brinton's _Am. Race_, p. 358. [321] Marcoy, P., _Tour du Monde_, 1866, 2eme sem. p. 148. [322] _Op. cit._, p. 132. The meanings are my own conjectures. [323] An elaborate argument in support of this theory is to be found in Hervas' celebrated work, _Arithmetica di quasi tutte le nazioni conosciute_. [324] See especially the lists of Hale, Gallatin, Trumbull, and Boas, to which references have been given above.
