Jacquesson 2017, p. 108: "A second more dramatic example is P.R. Gurdon’s 1904 article 'The Morans' in the same journal. ... The census returned 78 speakers in 1901, 24 in 1911 and none in 1931. Gurdon’s article is thus the only source for this extinct language." Jacquesson, François (2017). "The linguistic reconstruction of the past The case of the Boro-Garo languages".
