To the Choctaw Indians the American Bible Society gave, in the year 1849, the entire New Test. in the Choctaw version, the translation having been prepared by the Rev. Alfred Wright and his fellow-missionaries.. Since that time the American Bible Society has also issued several parts of the Old Test., viz., the Pentateuch, and Joshua to 2 Kings. See Byington, Grammar of the Choctaw Language (edited by D.G. Brinton, from the original MS. in the library of the American Philosophical Society, Philadelphia, 1870). (B.P.)
