LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.
Washington, D. C., February 27, 1891.
Sir: Herewith I have the honor to submit a paper upon the paraphernalia of the medicine-men of the Apache and other tribes.
Analogues have been pointed out, wherever possible, especially in the case of the hoddentin and the izze-kloth, which have never to my knowledge previously received treatment.
Accompanying the paper is a bibliography of the principal works cited.
I have the honor to be, very respectfully, your obedient servant,
John G. Bourke,
Captain, Third Cavalry, U. S. Army.
Hon. J. W. Powell,
Director Bureau of Ethnology.
THE MEDICINE-MEN OF THE APACHE.
