Black Cod-Hooks (2)E209939-0

From card: "Shank of hard wood, blade of iron, lashing of split-spruce root. (Old)."In letter dated April 17, 1901 in accession file, Emmons identifies these objects as from Killisnoo. However, he also identifies Killisnoo as on Admiralty Island, but Killisnoo is on Killisnoo Island; it is Angoon which is on Admiralty Island. Because of this confusion, and because of the fact that Killisnoo and Angoon are only 2 miles apart, it is unclear whether these objects were collected at Killisnoo or Angoon.
