 side' ). A name given to the Nootka set- 

 tlements ' ' beyond the Ynclulaht ' ' ( Uclue-

Quiscat. The name of a chief of the 

 lower Tawakoni village, and of the village 

 itself, in the latter part of the 18th century. 

 The settlement was on the w. side of the 

 Brazos, on a bluff or plateau above some 

 springs, notfar from modern Waco, Texas. 

 In 1778, immediately after an epidemic, 

 it contained 150 warriors, or about 750 

 people (Mezieres in Mem. de Nueva Espa- 

 fia, XXVIII, 273, MS.). In 1779, Mezieres, 

 while at the village, called it the "first 

 village of the Taucanas, named that of 

 Quiscat" (Noticia de los Efectos, etc., 

 Sept. 13, 1779, in Mem. de Nueva Espaila, 

 xxviii, 248, MS.). Morfi erroneously says 

 that this village was one of Kichai and 

 Yscani (Hist. Tex., ca. 1781, MS.). The 

 name El Quiscat was applied to the vil- 

 lage as late as 1795 (Manuel Muiioz in 

 Lamar Papers, Mar. 13, 1795, MS. ). Chief 

 Quiscat went to San Antonio with Mezi- 

 eres to make peace with the Spaniards, 

 apparently in 1772, and remained there- 

 after generally friendly, particularly using 

 his influence to aid the Spaniards in re- 

 storing the apostate Aranames to Espi- 

 ritu Santo mission, and inducing the 

 Tonkawa to settle in a permanent village 

 ( Vial, Diario, 1787, in Archivo Gen. , Hist. , 

 XLiii, MS.). Pedro Vial, when on his 

 expedition from San Antonio to Santa 

 Fe, having been severely injured by a fall 

 from his horse, stayed three weeks at the 

 lodge of Chief "Quiscate" to recover. 

 See Flechazos. For the name, cf. Kishkat, 

 given as a Wichita subtribe. (h. e. b.)

 The Turk as a guide; but the Spaniards
