Basket E20847, identified as Hutsnuwu Tlingit from Admiralty Island, is Swan original # 68. Ledger book indicates that Catalogue #s E20906, E20907, and E20908 are also original # 68. Accession record entry indicates the basket # E20847 contained these toy spoons, dolls, and dish (E20906 - 8), therefore all these objects are being stored together as Tlingit for now. Note that E20907 had been first catalogued as Tsimshian (probably based on Ft. Simpson identification in Anthropology ledger book of paddles E20902 and 3), and subsequently reidentified by an unknown person as possibly Makah.

List in accession file includes #84 - "1 wooden dish "Beaver" presented by Mr. Morisson, Chief Trader H.B. Co. Fort Simpson, B.C. [probably Charles E. Morrison.]"
