CONTENT DESCRIPTION
AbstractReceived letter of Feburary 17. Waiting for Kwagu'ł, Mama̱liliḵa̱la, and Ławitʼsis to finish winter dance. Will try to get good set of red cedar bark. Tells of going to Alert Bay recently where some people, including the "Halls School boys," were upset, some laughing, about Hunt "who is finding out all our Dances and then he goes and tells it to Dr. Boas." Boas publication on Hamatsa was in Mr. Spencer's store. Some in Alert Bay object to all this.
