experience with the Indians in a
most interesting and entertaining
manner. That the race regards
Father Gasso with much esteem ia
evidenced by the fact that many
tribes have shown him the highest
honor within their power, such as
they bestow on their chiefs. In two
tribes very similar names were Civ
