A Further Contribution to the Study of the Mortuary Customs of the North

A Further Contribution to the Study of the Mortuary Customs of the North American Indians is a book on Indians of North America's funeral customs and rites written by Dr. H. C. YARROW.

The primitive manners and customs of the North American Indians are rapidly passing away under influences of civilization and other disturbing elements. In view of this fact, it becomes the duty of all interested in preserving a record of these customs to labor assiduously, while there is still time, to collect such data as may be obtainable. This seems the more important now, as within the last ten years an almost universal interest has been awakened in ethnologic research, and the desire for more knowledge in this regard is constantly increasing.
