Note 204 — Chapter XXXIV · INDIAN MYTHOLOGY.

Mr. Pyrlæus lived long among the Iroquois, and was well acquainted with their language. He was instructed in the Mohawk dialect by the celebrated interpreter Conrad Weiser. He has left behind him some manuscript grammatical works on that idiom, one of them is entitled: Affixa nominum et verborum Linguæ Macquaicæ, and another, Adjectiva, nomina et pronomina Linguæ Macquaicæ. These MSS. are in the library of the Society of the United Brethren at Bethlehem.
