  is 
  all 
  that 
  remains 
  of 
  a 
  nation 
  the 
  most 
  warlike, 
  most 
  polished 
  

   and 
  the 
  most 
  attached 
  to 
  the 
  French." 
  Their 
  name 
  has 
  become 
  

   the 
  generic 
  title 
  of 
  a 
  great 
  linguistic 
  family. 
  They 
  were 
  the 
  

   Adirondacks 
  of 
  Colden. 
  

  

  The 
  Montagnais, 
  or 
  Montagnards, 
  have 
  simply 
  a 
  French 
  name, 
  

   referring 
  to 
  their 
  homes 
  in 
  the 
  mountains 
  below 
  Quebec. 
  

  

  The 
  Abenaquiois, 
  or 
  Abenaki, 
  w 
  T 
  ere 
  the 
  Kennebecs 
  or 
  Eastern 
  

   Indians 
  of 
  the 
  English, 
  called 
  Owenagungas 
  by 
  the 
  Iroquois. 
  

   The 
  Sokoquois, 
  or 
  Sokokis, 
  were 
  the 
  Saco 
  Indians 
  belonging 
  to 
  

   the 
  Abenakis. 
  They 
  and 
  the 
  Mahicans 
  are 
  now 
  the 
  St 
  Francis 
  

   Indians 
  of 
  Canada. 
  

  

  The 
  Loups, 
  or 
  Wolves, 
  comprised 
  the 
  Schaghticoke 
  Indians, 
  

   who 
  came 
  from 
  New 
  England 
  in 
  1672, 
  the 
  Mahicans, 
  who 
  for- 
  

   merly 
  owned 
  Albany, 
  and 
  those 
  sometimes 
  called 
  Mahikanders 
  

   or 
  River 
  Indians. 
  The 
  Iroquois 
  called 
  these 
  Agotsagenens. 
  The 
  

   Mohicans 
  of 
  New 
  England 
  were 
  their 
  kindred. 
  The 
  Wappingers 
  

   were 
  Algonquins 
  of 
  the 
  lower 
  Hudson, 
  and 
  the 
  Montauks 
  were 
  

   Algonquins 
  of 
  Long 
  Island. 
  The 
  Delawares, 
  or 
  Lenni-lenape, 
  

   were 
  also 
  their 
  kindred 
  and 
  divided 
  into 
  three 
  families, 
  of 
  which 
  

   the 
  Munseys 
  are 
  best 
  known. 
  Their 
  early 
  homes 
  were 
  on 
  the 
  

   Delaware. 
  There 
  were 
  many 
  minor 
  divisions, 
  but 
  the 
  Minquas 
  

   or 
  Mengwe 
  must 
  not 
  be 
  classed 
  with 
  these 
  as 
  Ruttenber 
  has 
  done. 
  

  

  The 
  Ottawas 
  were 
  the 
  Utawawas 
  and 
  Dowaganhaes, 
  or 
  Far 
  

   Indians, 
  embracing 
  several 
  nations. 
  Among 
  these 
  were 
  the 
  

   Necariages 
  or 
  Ennikaragi. 
  The 
  Kiskakons 
  made 
  another, 
  north

  Lake 
  Huron. 
  

  

  The 
  Illinois 
  were 
  on 
  the 
  Illinois 
  river, 
  and 
  were 
  known 
  as 
  

   Chictaghicks 
  or 
  Kichtages 
  ; 
  also 
  Geghtigeghroones. 
  Several 
  dis- 
  

   tinct 
  tribes 
  were 
  included 
  under 
  this 
  name. 
  East 
  of 
  them 
  the 
  

   Miamis, 
  Oumiamis 
  or 
  Weas, 
  were 
  called 
  Twightwees 
  by 
  the 
  

   Iroquois. 
  The 
  migratory 
  Shawnees, 
  or 
  Shaounons, 
  were 
  also 
  

   Satanas. 
  The 
  first 
  name 
  relates 
  to 
  their 
  southern 
  origin. 
  

  

  The 
  O 
  jib 
  was, 
  or 
  Chippewas, 
  were 
  called 
  Ostiagaghroones 
  by 
  

   the 
  Iroquois. 
  The 
  Saulteurs 
  of 
  the 
  Sault 
  Ste 
  Marie 
  were 
  part 
  

   of 
  these, 
  known 
  as 
  Estiaghicks. 
  The 
  Mississagas 
  belonged 
  to 
  

   them, 
  but 
  came 
  east 
  from 
  Lake 
  Huron.
