The Cherokees in 1827-28 formed a national council to publish a Cherokee alphabet printed by Samuel Worcester and a Cherokee newspaper. Harris, a printer, and the narrator journeyed to New Echota to establish the paper, riding from Jasper to Huntsville. They faced language barriers, used a sled galley and hand press, and printed limited Cherokee columns weekly as translation from English proved slow.
The narrative recalls travel to New Echota in December 1827, meeting Samuel Worcester and Elias Boudinot, and preparing the Cherokee syllabary. It describes the planned press, the paper mill shortage, and the construction of printing offices, cases, and the first Cherokee alphabet that enabled literacy among full-blood Cherokee. It also surveys early missions at Brainerd, Howe's Turnip Mountain, Carmel, Millstone, and other stations, detailing key missionaries and their work, with plans to continue.
