This is an exceptionally scarce Cherokee language imprint most likely from Vinita, Indian Territory, which was later Oklahoma. The Reverend Chamberlin went to Pheasant Hill mission, in what is now Craig County, Oklahoma, in 1868, several years before Vinita came into existence. He printed his own translations of religious matter on a crude press and distributed them among the Native Americans as part of his missionary work for the Presbyterian Church.
