Chaouacha. A small tribe living, when 

 first known, on the E. bank of the Missis- 

 sii)pi, a short distance below the present 

 New Orleans, La. Although they had 

 aided the French in their Indian wars, 

 they fell under suspicion after the Natchez 

 war, and in consequence were attacked 

 and a number of the people massacred, in 

 1730, by negro slaves acting under orders 

 from the French governor, who had in 

 view the double i^urpose of weakening 

 the power of the Indians and of over- 

 coming any i^rojected combination be- 

 tween them and the negroes. Subse- 

 quently they seem to have removed to 

 the w. side of the Mississippi, a little 

 above their former position. (,j. m.)
