=================
Martin Thomas appears to have a complete photocopy set, and made available three to JMS in September 2004. JMS photocopied these.
Notebooks written in his own hand. These are characterised by segments running to several pages, down to fragments of a line or two, for different languages. Mathews has often written the name of the language above or alongside, and often has attributed the entries to an informant.
Mathews appears to have spent time reconsidering the notebook entries, and has included cross-references to related matter whether in the same notebook or in another one.
The handwriting is for the most part unambiguous, but on on occasions difficult to interpret, and sometime the photocopy is faded.
