KA’-ROK FAMILY.

Pa-chi’-ta, a chief. The Smithsonian alphabet is used. 
2.—Arra-arra. 
Obtained by Lieut. George Crook on the Klamath River, California, and is

Gibbs, in No. 358, and the Smithsonian alphabet used. The latter

3.—Arra-arra. . 
Obtained by Mr. George Gibbs. It is Nos. 359, 401, and 403, Smithson- 
ian Collections. No. 401 has been used here, as it was written in the 
Smithsonian alphabet. 
4.—Peh’-tsik. 
Obtained by Lieut. Edw. Ross, who says it is the language of the Upper 
Klamath, from the Indians of Red Cap’s Bar. His spelling has not 
been changed. It is No 318, Smithsonian Collections. 
5.—h-nek. 
Obtained by George Gibbs, and published in Schoolcraft, Part IIT, page 440, 
from which it has been taken; the orthography is not changed. On 
page 422 of that volume, Mr. Gibbs says that “‘ Ehnek is the name of a 
band at the mouth of the Salmon or Quoratem River [California]. This 
latter name may perhaps be considered as proper to give to the family, 
should it be held one. The language reaches from Bluff Creek, the 
upper boundary of the Pohlik, to about Clear Creek, thirty or forty 
miles above the Salmon; varying, however, somewhat from point to 
point. On the Salmon, it is said by some to extend to the sources; by 
others, only to the forks. The name of Peh-tsik, ‘above’, is the term 
by which the collective tribe is known by the lower Indians.”
