PREFACE. 

This concise, cheap and simple Dictionary is 
prepared by the International Colportage Mission, 
to facilitate its work among the Ojibway Indians, 
who inhabit a wide stretch of territory extending 
about a thousand miles in a north-westerly direc- 
tion from Windsor and Detroit. 

This is the sixth edition in various forms pub- 
lished by the above Mission for the benefit of the 
Ojibway Indians, designed to assist them in 
acquiring a better understanding of the English 
language and the Holy Scriptures. It will also be 
found helpful to persons desirous of becoming 
acquainted with the Ojibway language. 

Published in two Parts, English-Ojibway, and 
Ojibway-English . 

Friends interested in the Indians, and desiring 
to promote their welfare, and the extension of 
Christian knowledge among them, are respectfully 
asked to render financial assistance in this work, 
as well as the other work of the Mission .

Mission,
