100 THE PATAWAT. 
The pronunciation, of the Patawat, like that of the Yurok, is quite 
guttural. Judge Rosborough states, in the letter above quoted, that one 
and the same language extends from Humboldt Bay to Waitspek, and that it 
is “not unpleasing to the ear, being free from harsh and guttural sounds.” 
This does not correspond with my observations. The Patawat and Viard 
are undoubtedly identical with the Koquilth or Kowilth mentioned by 
Gibbs. The Yurok does not extend as far south as Humboldt Bay.
