 kenne and the Tselone on the w. side of 

 the Rocky mts., Brit. Col. 

 Otzen-ne.— Morice in Trans. Can. Inst., 29, 1.S93. 



Ouabanghirea. One of several towns 

 situated close together, apparently on 

 Ohio r. or one of its tributaries, on Mar- 

 quette's map of 1673 as given by Theve- 

 not (but not on the true map as given 

 by Shea, Discov. and Expl. Miss. Val., 

 1852 ) . It is possible that the name refers 

 to the Ouabano; but the way in which 

 these towns are located on the map 

 shows that their situation is mere guess- 

 work. 



Ouabano ( Algonquian : ' eastern ' ; cf. Ah- 

 naki). An unidentified tribe or band, 

 probal)ly Algonquian, encountered by La 

 Salle in 1683. They traded with the 

 Spaniards, and at La Salle's solicitation 

 visited Fort St Louis on Illinois r. in 

 company with the Shawnee and Chaskpe. 

 They appear to have come from the S. 

 Oabano.— La Salle (1683) in Margry, Dec. ii, 314, 

 1877. Ouabans.— Memoir of 1706 "in N. Y. Doc. 

 Col. Hist., IX, 799, 18.5.5. 



Ouachita. A former tribe, apparently 

 Caddoan, residing on Black or Ouachita 

 r., in N. E. Louisiana. Bienville in 1700 

 encountered some of them carrying salt 

 to the Taensa, with whom he says they 

 were intending to live. Later he reached 

 the main Ouachita village, which hefound 

 to comprise about 5 houses and to con- 

 tain about 70 men. It would seem that 

 the triV)e subsecjuently retired before the 

 Chickasaw and settled among the Natch- 

 itoch, their identity being soon after- 

 ward lost. They are not to be con- 

 founded with the Wichita. (.i. r. s. )
