this huge rock standeth so neere unto a 

 sea, that many times in stormes (the 

 winds coming outwardly from the sea) 

 the wanes thereof are beaten into the 

 said fresh streame, so that the fresh water 

 for a oertaine space, groweth salt and 

 brackish." From this it would appear 

 that even the sources of the Roanoke 

 were reputed to be 30 or 40 days' journey 

 from Moratoc town.

 lished, (a. f. c. )

Chebacco. A sort of boat, thus defined 

 by Bartlett (Diet, of Americanisms, 111, 

 1877): " C/*e6flcco boat. A description of 

 fishing vessel employed in the Newfound- 

 land fisheries. So called from Chebacco 

 parish, Ipswich, Mass., where many were 

 fitted out. They are also called pink- 

 sterns, and sometimes tobacco-boats." 

 The last name is probably a corruption 

 of the first. Dr Murray, in the Oxford 

 Dictionary, inclines to believe that the 

 place may have been named from the 

 boat, in which case Chebacco would be 

 related to Xebec, etc. But it is probably 

 from the Massachuset dialect of Algon- 

 quian. (a. f. c.) 



Chebog. A name of the menhaden, 

 from one of the eastern dialects of the
