POMO FAMILY. 
1.—Pomo. 
Obtained by Mr. Stephen Powers, at the Round Valley Reservation, Cali- 
fornia, December, 1875, from José, the ‘‘marshal” of the reservation. 
The Smithsonian alphabet is used, as is the case with all Mr. Powers’s 
vocabularies. 
2. —Cal-li-no-me'-ro. 
Collected by Mr. Stephen Powers, ‘‘at Healdsburg, California, in 1872, and 
December, 1875, from Ventura, Andres, and Pinito, all of whom were 
well versed in Spanish, and the latter in English also.” 
3. Yo-kat'-a. 
Obtained by Mr. Stephen Powers, at Ukiah City, California, December, 1875, 
from two Indians of the tribe. 
4.—-Ba-tem-da-kait. 
Obtained by Mr. George Gibbs, from the heads of Eel River, California. It 
has been printed in Schooleraft, Part ITI, p. 434, and on page 421 of that 
volume Mr. Gibbs says it is ‘not the name of a band, but of a valley, 
occupied by several of them, whose names we could not learn. These 
three [Ba-tem-da-kaii, Chau-i-shek, and Yu-kai] were all obtained 
through the medium of our Clear Lake Indian, who translated to the 
respective parties what he received in Spanish. As much care as 
practicable was given to putting them down correctly; but their only 
value is probably in showing the extent of the language of the lake.” 
Mr. Gibbs afterward transliterated it, using the Smithsonian alphabet, 
in No. 865, Smithsonian Collections, from which it has been taken.
