 of the Skagit proper in 1853 was about 

 300. They are now on Swinomish res., 

 Wash. Gibbs makes this division include 

 the Kikiallu, Nukwatsamish, Towahha, 

 Smalihu, Sakumeiui, Miskaiwhu, Miseek- 

 wigweelis, Swinaiuish, and Skwomamish; 

 but proba])ly nothing more is meant by 

 this classiiication than that the dialects of 

 the several divi.-^ions were nearly related 

 and the geographical position close. 

 Nothing like political union appears to 

 have existed among them.
