lie conversed with them through a Powhatan interpreter. The fact 

 that the Monacan and Manahoac were so closely allied, lived in the 

 same fashion and in practically the same country, renders it probable 

 that the linguistic diflerence was only dialectic. Byrd, a most compe- 

 tent authority, who knew the remnants of these tribes a century later, 

 tells us positively that each was formerly a distinct nation, or rather a 

 different canton of the same nation, speaking* the same language and 

 having the same customs (Byrd, 4). Knowing the Saponi and Tutelo, 

 whom he includes i this statement, to be Siouan, avc are thus enabled 

 upon his authority to assign the Stegarake and the other Manahoac 

 tribes to the same family.
