Inhaltsangabe
Excerpt from History of the Expedition Under the Command of Lewis and Clark<br/><br/>N. B.  This index covers all the matter of the three preceding volumes, intro ductory and appendicial, as well as main text and notes thereto. It is mainly an index of names, proper and common, without ysis of what comes under them. All proper names are intended to be indexed, except a few which recur incessantly in the main text and notes, as Lewis, Clark, the Missouri, etc and a few others of no pointed implication, as Dakota, Montana, Indians, etc or of mere allusion. Of common names the list is pretty full, though it is exclusive, as a rule, of mere mention, and of incessantly recurring words. Proper names are distinguished from common by capitalization, the same as if they occurred in ordinary sentences. Personal proper names are of course entered by sur names; as, Smith, John. Names of Indian families and tribes are in the singular number, and not followed by Iuds except in distinguishing such from places, etc of same name. Place-names which are phrases are entered as usually spoken and written; thus, Camp Chopunnish, F ort Clatsop, but Chopunnish r Clatsop co etc. Cross-references are made only in special cases. Variant spellings of proper names are entered, as Arikara, Ricara, both of which require to be looked up to find out all that is given in such cases. The mode of alphabetizing is by taking an entry-word and finishing with phrases under it, when any, before proceeding to its compounds: thus, Cow cr., Cow isl., cowas, cowbane, cow-beetle  not cowes, Cow cr., cowbane, cow-beetle, Cow isl. This introduces a logical element at slight infraction of the alphabet, and the nature of the matter to be indexed seemed to call for such method. Some abbreviations are used these are chic?y br., branch; co county cr., creek; fk., fork; Inds., Indians; isl., island; ldg., landing; mt., mts moun tain, mountains pra., prairie rap., rapid or rapids res.
