http://archives.nypl.org/mss/1565

Papers consist of ethnological and linguistic materials on the Aleut and Kamchadal peoples. Aleutian material includes the texts of 81 folk tales collected by Jochelson during the Riaboushinsky Expedition (1909-1911), with interlinear literal translation and appended free translation in English; his unpublished "Essay On the Grammar of the Aleutian Language;" two shorter studies on Aleut grammar; and his card file Aleut-Russian/Russian-Aleut dictionary. Accompanying Jochelson's work is a critical study of his "Essay" prepared by Ethel Aginsky in 1933 as a Master's thesis and her card file Aleut-English dictionary.
