Korusi. A tribe of the Patwin division 

 of the Copehan family, formerly living at 

 Colusa, Colusa co. , Cal. It was once com- 

 paratively populous, as Gen. Bidwell 

 states that in 1849 the village of the Korusi 

 contained at least 1,000 inhaljitants ( Pow- 

 ers in Cont. N. A. Ethnol., in, 219, 1877). 

 They are spoken of as clannish, and fond 

 of nursing family feuds. When a Korusi 

 woman died, leaving a very young infant, 

 her friends shook it to death in a skin or 

 blanket. Powers (p. 226) says the Ko- 

 rusi hold that in the beginning of all 

 things there was nothing Ijut the Old 

 Turtle swimming about in a limitless 

 ocean, but that he dived down and 

 brought up earth, with Avhich he created 

 the world.
