in Dakota Indian Language
by Theodore F. Riggs MD, , Oahe, S.D.
Santee, Nebraska; 1908
This pamphlet was used to educate Dakota people about Tuberculosis.
The Santee Normal Training School instructed Dakota children in the Dakota language.
These children came from families who were removed from Minnesota to Nebraska after the U.S.-Dakota War in 1863.
Reverend A.L. Riggs founded the school in 1870 as an academy to train Native teachers.
The school developed a printing press in 1871 and produced many materials in the Dakota language.
This publication is quite rare and most known copies are in institutions.
