SKULL OF CHIEF COMCOMLY—STEWART 575 
he was delivered to the American authorities. He returned home by 
way of Australia. 
An interesting sidelight on Ranald’s adventure is the fact that one 
of the students in his English class was Moriyama Einosude, who 
served as the principal interpreter for the Japanese Commissioners 
during Commodore Perry’s negotiations on his second visit to Japan. 
In this indirect fashion we get a suggestion of the qualities that 
made Comcomly a great chief. The present-day Chinook, like Ranald 
McDonald, do not have, nor do they need, the “sign of freedom.” 
They have no reason, however, to be ashamed that Comcomly bore 
this “sign.”
