  Apr.l, 
  1882 
  (stated 
  to 
  be 
  a 
  distinct 
  family). 
  

  

  According 
  t<> 
  Powers, 
  this 
  family 
  was 
  represented, 
  so 
  far 
  as 
  known. 
  

   by 
  two 
  tribes 
  in 
  California, 
  one 
  the 
  Chi-mal-a-kwe, 
  living 
  on 
  New 
  

   River, 
  a 
  branch 
  of 
  the 
  Trinity, 
  the 
  other 
  the 
  Chimariko, 
  residing 
  

   upon 
  the 
  Trinity 
  itself 
  from 
  Burnt 
  Ranch 
  up 
  to 
  the 
  mouth 
  of 
  North 
  

   Fork, 
  California. 
  The 
  two 
  tribes 
  are 
  said 
  to 
  have 
  been 
  as 
  numer- 
  

   ous 
  formerly 
  as 
  the 
  Hupa, 
  by 
  whom 
  they 
  were 
  overcome 
  and 
  nearly 
  

   exterminated. 
  Upon 
  the 
  arrival 
  of 
  the 
  Americans 
  only 
  twenty 
  -five 
  of 
  

   the 
  Chimalakwe 
  were 
  left. 
  In 
  1875 
  Powers 
  collected 
  a 
  Chimariko 
  

   vocabulary 
  of 
  about 
  two 
  hundred 
  words 
  from 
  a 
  woman, 
  supposed 
  to 
  

  

  1 
  ne 
  of 
  the 
  last 
  three 
  women 
  of 
  that 
  tribe. 
  In 
  1889 
  Mr. 
  Curtin, 
  

  

  while 
  in 
  Hoopa 
  Valley, 
  found 
  a 
  Chimariko 
  man 
  seventy 
  or 
  more 
  

   years 
  old, 
  who 
  is 
  believed 
  to 
  be 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  two 
  living 
  survivors 
  of 
  the 
  

   tribe. 
  Mr. 
  Curtin 
  obtained 
  a 
  good 
  vocabulary 
  and 
  much 
  valuable 
  

   information 
  relative 
  to 
  the 
  former 
  habitat 
  and 
  history 
  of 
  the 
  tribe. 
  

   Although 
  a 
  study 
  of 
  these 
  vocabularies 
  reveals 
  a 
  number 
  of 
  words 
  

   having 
  correspondences 
  with 
  the 
  Kulanapan 
  (Porno) 
  equivalents, 
  

   yel 
  the 
  greater 
  number 
  show 
  no 
  affinities 
  with 
  the 
  dialects 
  of 
  the 
  

   latter 
  family, 
  or 
  indeed 
  with 
  any 
  other. 
  The 
  family 
  is 
  therefore 
  

   classed 
  as 
  distinct.
