198 REPORT OF COMMISSIONER OF FISH AND FISHERIES. 



Indians, for the sake of preserving" sonietbiug of a language wbich will 

 soon become extinct. Without expecting to save them, I picked up these 

 words casually from the Indians lastfall, (1872,) while getting the salmon- 

 eggs, and, meager as the list is, I believe it is the only collection of words 

 of the McCloud Indians that has been made:
