Eufaula and urged them to treat with the 

 Confederacy, Opothleyaliolo exercised 

 all his intiuence against the treaty, and 

 when the council decided, after several 

 days of debate and deliberation, to enter 

 into the treaty, he withdrew with his 

 following from the council. Later he 

 withdrew from the Creek Nation with 

 about a third of the Creeks and espoused 

 the cause of the Union. 1-ighting his 

 way as he went, he retreated into Kan- 

 sas, and later died near the town of Leroy, 

 Coffey CO. (f. h. g. w. g. )

Oquaga ( Mohawk : ' place of wild grapes, '

 An Iroquois village, probably under Tus- 

 carora jurisdiction, formerly on the e. 

 branch of the Susquehanna, on both sides 

 of the river, in the town of Colesville, 

 Broome co., N. Y. It was destroyed by 

 the Americans in 1778. According to 

 Ruttenber, a band of Tuscarora settled 

 there in 1722 and were afterward joined 

 by some Mahican and Esopus Indians 

 who had been living among the Mohawk; 

 but from the records of the Albany Con- 

 ference in 1722 it appears that they were 

 already at Oquaga at that time. In 1778 

 it was "one of the neatest Indian towns 

 on the Susquehanna r." ; it contained the 

 ruins of an "old fort." O'Callaghansays 

 the inhabitants were Iroquois and chiefly 

 Mohawk. They numbered about 750 in 

 1765. Cf. Osqu'ake. (.i. n. b. h. )
