Accession file identifies original #99 as 1 fish line made of spruce roots, and two Halibut hooks from Klawark [i.e Klawock] village. The fish line was given catalogue # E20888 and the two halibut hooks were given # E20889. Apparently during cataloguing, only E20888 was identified in the ledger book and catalogue card as Tlingit from Klawock; this information was not listed, apparently in an oversight, for the halibut hooks. The culture/locality information for E20889 has now been been changed to match E20888.
