II is mans work with the need OF the
instinct of the born fisherman back OF II.
This instinct and the love OF 1t makes
the Pamunkey the best of all fishermen.
Because of these expeditions the Indian
has learned many things that are UNI

of the tribe have made great excursions,

nave the homing instinct as naturally de-

of the eastern shore of Virginia.
Maintaining Their race integrity is a
dominating passion with the Pamunkeys.
On occasion they are permitted to in
termarry with whites, but never with
other races. Their precautions AGAINST
the adulteration of the race are shown
today in the fact that they are the first
clauses in their statutes. These in
