Collection, of Aztec (Nahuatl) and other native Mexican language documents assembled for their linguistic content, ca. 1547-1906.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/32958221

The collection contains manuscripts and broadsides the majority of which were used by parish priests in their ministry among the Indians. They include catechisms, prayers, confession guides, doctrinal works and vocabulary lists in Spanish and Indian languages. There are several unrelated documents in Spanish, chiefly pertaining to religious or secular administrative matters. Topics include the arrest of United States consul John Black, an 1847 manuscript proclamation re the coming of the Americans, an 1863 proclamation re the restoration of the empire under Maximilian, an 1866 proclamation urging support for Benito Jaurez and a treatise on the Virgin of Guadalupe.
