Note 59 — Chapter X
J. V. (Jedediah Vincent) Huntington translation
By comparison of this table with the more detailed list in Lewis and Clark’s Narrative (Biddle ed., Philadelphia, 1814), ii, pp. 462-464, it will be noticed that several changes have been made by Brackenridge, both in the data and orthography, while the latitude is added. From internal evidence, there is some reason to believe that Brackenridge had access to the original journals of Lewis and Clark, but failed properly to interpret some of the proper names in the manuscript.—Ed.
