This subseries of the Plains series consists primarily of Harrington's research on Dakota and Lakota languages. The Dakota notes are based mainly on the dictionaries of Stephen R. Riggs and John P. Williamson, with some original linguistic and ethnographic information inserted. The bulk of Lakota material centers around a proposed primer written in collaboration with John Bad Heart Bull, a Siouan artist who worked with Harrington at Fort Wingate in July 1939. Harrington's fervor for primers traces as far back as 1923. It continued sporadically until about 1936 and escalated from then until July 1939, when, at the direction of the Bureau of American Ethnology, he went to Fort Wingate to assist in the Office of Indian Affairs primer program. That same year he also consulted with the Federal Works Projects Administration on the translation of Sioux legends. Correspondence with Ella Deloria and extracts from her "Dakota Grammar," written in collaboration with Franz Boas, form part of this section. Small amounts of additional Siouan data include Oto and Dhegiha linguistic notes, and miscellaneous notes on the Dakota, Chiwere, Omaha/Ponca, Osage/Kansa, Kiowa, and Kansas/Kaw languages. Information regarding Omaha and Osage came from Francis LaFlesche. Also among the Siouan files are a brief Tutelo vocabulary and eight Saponi placenames extracted from various secondary sources.
