Assiniboin of the Plains, A division of 

 the Assiniboin described by Dobb.s (Hud- 

 son Bay, 35, 1744) as distincjuished from 

 that portion of the tribe living in the 



wooded country. On his map they are 

 located w. of L. Winnij)eg. De iSmet 

 (Miss, de 1' Oregon, 104, 106, 1848) esti- 

 mated them at 300 lodges, and in the 

 English edition of his work (Oregon 

 Miss., 156, 1847) the number given is 600 

 lodges. He says they hunt over the 

 great plains between the Saskatchewan, 

 Red, Missouri, and Yellowstone rs., and 

 as compared with the Assiniboin of the 

 woods "are more expert in thieving, 

 greater topers, and are ])erpetually at 

 war," but that in general the men are 

 more roV)ust and of commanding stature. 

 They include the Itscheal)ine, Wato- 

 pachnato, ()ta()pa))ine, and Jatonal)ine.
