Description: Materials relating to Menominee culture and language materials at the American Philosophical Society. Includes Walter James Hoffman's correspondence with Henry Phillips concerning Hoffman's Menominee grammar and vocabulary submitted for publication to the APS and the "Report of American Philosophical Society committee on Dr. Edwin James' communication on the Menomonie Indians," in which the author suggests that the Menominee do not speak Algonquin, although they use much Algonquin in their vocabulary (the committee recommends publication, preferably in Historical and Literary Committee Transactions).
