Cal. (Barbour in Sen. Ex. Doc. 4, 32d 

 Cong., spec, sess., 256, 1853). By treaty 

 of June 10, 1851, these tribes reserved a 

 tract between Tejon i)ass and Kern r. , and 

 ceded the remainder of their lands to tlie 

 United States. Probably Mariposan (Yo- 

 kuts), though possibly Chumashan. Cf. 

 Hullvma, Ifolmiuk. 



Hole-in-the-day {Bagivunagijtk, 'hole, 

 opening, rift in the sky.'^ — W. J.). A 

 Chippewa chief, a member of the warlike 

 Noka (Bear) clan. He succeeded Curly- 

 head (q. V. ) as war chief in 1825. He had 

 already been recognized as a chief by the 

 Government for his bravery and fidelity 

 to the Americans in the war of 1812. His 

 wholesubsequent life was spentin fighting 

 the Sioux, and he ended the struggle that 

 had lasted for centuries over the posses- 

 sion of the fisheries and hunting grounds 

 of the L. Superior region by definitively 

 driving the hereditary enemy across the 

 Mississippi. Had not the Government 

 intervened to compel the warring tribes 

 to accept a line of demarkation, he threat- 

 ened to plant his village on Minnesota 

 r. and pursue the Sioux into the western 

 plains. At Prairie du Chien he acknowl- 

 edged the ancient possession by the Sioux 

 of the territory from the Mississippi to 

 Green bay and the head of L. Superior, 

 but claimed it for the Chippewa by right 

 of conquest. The Chippewa had the ad- 

 vantage of the earlier possession of fire- 

 arms, but in the later feuds which Hole- 

 in-the-day carried on the two peoples 

 were equally armed. George Copway, 

 who valued the friendship of Hole-in-the- 

 day and once ran 270 miles in 4 days to 

 apprise him of a Sioux raid, relates how 

 he almost converted the old chief, who 

 promised to embrace Christianity and 

 advise his people to do so "after one 

 more battle with the Sioux." He was 

 succeeded as head chief of the Chippewa 

 on his death in 1846 by his son, who bore 

 his father's name and who carried on in 

 Minnesota the ancient feud with the Da- 

 kota tribes. At the time of the Sioux 

 rising in 1862 he was accused of planning 

 a similar revolt. The second Hole-in-the- 

 day was murdered by men of his own 

 tribe at Crow Wing, Minn., June 27, 

 1868. (f- H.)

 States troops in Wyoming, and in another

 were constructing the Union Pacific R. R.

 murder of Spotted Tail. Five years later 

 he resigned and was appointed second 

 lieutenant under Agent Spencer, but was 

 again compelled to resign on account of 

 ill health. When Gen. Crook was sent 

 with a commission to Rosebud, in 1889, to 

 makeanagreement with the Indians there,
