Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature
This dialect of the Algonquin stock was spoken at the time of the discovery of America, between the Hudson and the Susquehanna rivers, by the Delaware and Minsi tribes. In 1818 the Rev. Christian Frederick Dencke, a Moravian missionary stationed at New Fairfield, in Upper Canada, forwarded a translation of the Epistles of St. John to the board of the American Bible Society, which has been published.
