BOAS] SOCIAL DIVISIONS OF THE KWAG-Ut 835 



Laqwi^liila; and also | the Q!onik' !ut !es who are called LoeI- 43 

 qlwenox" (halibut-fishers). And so that is all | about this. || 



These names never change. | 45 



I think this is all, for these are the names of the | head chiefs of the 

 numayms of the tribes, and the houses and the | dogs all have names. 

 The reasons why the chiefs of the people of former times | kept dogs 

 was to keep watch against attacks of enemies and against attempts 

 of witchcraft. ||
