In a letter dated August 12, 1902, from Chilkat [Klukwan?], Alaska, and filed in Accession 39826, Emmons notes that he is going to make up a complete tool box "for the man" (i.e. presumably for a male figure/exhibit mannequin, as the "Chilkat family group" of exhibit mannequins at one time included a carver.) In papers in Accession 40238, this tool set is identified as a set of tools used by a Tlingit wood carver in making dug out canoes, masks, etc.. In a letter of Nov. 24, 1902 in the accession file Emmons says: "These thirty odd pieces are just about an average of what any man's box would contain. ... These pieces are generally from Chilkat, but represent the working tools of a man of any of the Northern Tlingit tribes."
