Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Dictionary of the Osage Language The preparation of this work has been made possible by the Mis souri Historical Society, which, through the energetic interest of its late treasurer, Mr. Breckinridge Jones, established an Osage Fund for this particular purpose from a generous donation for the study of the Osage language made by Mr. E. W. Marland of Ponca City, Okla. It is the result of several years of study and it is hoped that it may be of use to those who desire a knowledge, not only of Osage, but of the great Siouan family of tongues to which it belongs.
