We procured from them a vocabulary, and then, after buying five small dogs, some dried berries, and a white bread or cake made of roots, we left them.

The wind, however, rose so high that we were obliged, after going one mile, to land on the left side, opposite a rocky island, and pass the day." On the same day the white chiefs visited one of the most prominent of the native houses built along the river.
"This," says the journal, "was the residence of the principal chief of the Chilluckittequaw nation, who we found was the same between whom and our two chiefs we had made a peace at the Echeloot village.

He received us, very kindly, and set before us pounded fish, filberts, nuts, the berries of the sacacommis, and white bread made of roots.

We gave, in return, a bracelet of ribbon to each of the women of the house, with which they were very much pleased.

The chief had several articles, such as scarlet and blue cloth, a sword, a jacket, and a hat, which must have been procured from the whites, and on one side of the room were two wide, split boards, placed together so as to make space for a rude figure of a man cut and painted on them.
