The languages of these two nations, of each of which we obtained a vocabulary, differ but little from each other, or from that of the Chopunnish who inhabit the Kooskooskee and Lewis' rivers.

In their dress and general appearance they also much resemble those nations; the men wearing a robe of deer- antelope-skin, under which a few of them have a short leathern shirt.

The most striking difference is among the females, the Sokulk women being more inclined to corpulency than any we have yet seen.

Their stature is low, their faces are broad, and their heads flattened in such a manner that the forehead is in a straight line from the nose to the crown of the head.

Their eyes are of a dirty sable, their hair is coarse and black, and braided without ornament of any kind.
