and friend of Ooblooria ; he was one of the most active and expert 

 hunters, as well as the most successful of the whole, and was one 

 of Commander Ross's guides on the first journey. I met with him 

 afterwards in Thoms bay, and he was the means of our discovering 

 the great Salmon (Lord Lindsay) river. 



Apellagliu was five feet three inches and a half high, rather 

 corpulent, and by no means good looking; she was sister to 

 TuUuahiu, in whose features there was a family resemblance, and 

 was about thirty-six years of age. Awack was about twenty-two, 

 had a very pleasing countenance, and v^as five feet eight inches 

 high. 



Ikmallik had another brother, besides Neweetioke, who was 

 named Atayaraktak, who was an active young man, about thirty, 

 and five feet eight inches and a half high ; his wife was a very 

 delicate person, and they had two children. It was this man and 

 Ookurahiu who first conducted me to Neitchillee, while Com- 

 mander Ross was on a journey to the westward. Ookurachiu was 

 also a nephew to Ikmallik, but lived with his mother Alurak.
