Date: 1948
Bibliographic Citation: Austin, Edward Burl. 1948. Cyrus Byington. Arkansas Historical Quarterly 7(1):81-6.
annotates: Was originally a high school paper, though Austin was teaching at the University of Florida at the time of publication; some language is lifted almost directly from Daniel Brinton’s biographical introduction to Byington’s “Grammar of the Choctaw Language.”
Despite flaws, contains useful biographical information and draws on 24 letters by Byington which were at the time in the possession of his grandson in De Queen, AR.
