  Che-pach-et, 
  an 
  applied 
  name, 
  is 
  said 
  to 
  mean 
  where 
  they 
  separate. 
  

  

  Ci-o-ha-na, 
  large 
  creek, 
  is 
  East 
  Canada 
  creek 
  on 
  Sauthier's 
  map. 
  

   As 
  another 
  name 
  on 
  this 
  map 
  for 
  this 
  is 
  Gayohara, 
  this 
  name 
  might 
  

   be 
  thought 
  a 
  natural 
  but 
  erroneous 
  rendering 
  of 
  Giohara. 
  Cai-o- 
  

   ha-hon 
  Te-ga-hi-ha-ha-ough-we, 
  however, 
  appears 
  on 
  an 
  indenture 
  

   of 
  1763, 
  and 
  as 
  the 
  latter 
  name 
  stands 
  for 
  East 
  Canada 
  creek, 
  the 
  

   former 
  may 
  be 
  a 
  place 
  on 
  it, 
  corresponding 
  to 
  Ciohana. 
  Tegahi- 
  

   haroughwe 
  is 
  on 
  George 
  KlockV 
  patent 
  of 
  1754. 
  French 
  gives 
  

   both 
  Ci-o-ha-na 
  and 
  Sag-o-ha-ra. 
  

  

  Da-ya'-hoo-wa'-quat, 
  carrying 
  place, 
  is 
  Morgan's 
  name 
  for 
  the 
  

   Mohawk 
  above 
  Little 
  Falls. 
  A. 
  Cusick 
  interpreted 
  this 
  as 
  lifting 
  

   the 
  boat, 
  but 
  added 
  another 
  definition, 
  in 
  the 
  valley. 
  The 
  former 
  is 
  

   to 
  be 
  preferred. 
  

  

  De-ka'-yo-ha-ron'-we, 
  a 
  creek 
  flowing 
  into 
  the 
  Mohawk 
  about 
  200 
  

   yards 
  below 
  Fort 
  Hendrick, 
  at 
  Canajoharie 
  Castle. 
  In 
  1761 
  John- 
  

   son 
  and 
  others 
  wished 
  to 
  buy 
  a 
  tract 
  beginning 
  on 
  the 
  north 
  bank 
  

   of 
  this 
  creek, 
  13 
  miles 
  from 
  the 
  Mohawk. 
  This 
  was 
  East 
  Canada 
  

   creek, 
  and 
  variants 
  of 
  the 
  name 
  are 
  given. 
  The 
  Indian 
  village 
  of 
  

   Canajoharie 
  was 
  then 
  a 
  little 
  farther 
  west 
  and 
  on 
  the 
  south 
  side 
  of 
  

   the 
  Mohawk, 
  the 
  country 
  adjoining 
  being 
  called 
  Canajoharrees. 
  

  

  De-yosh-to-ra-ron. 
  In 
  this 
  petition 
  it 
  was 
  asked 
  that 
  the 
  line 
  

   might 
  run 
  west 
  to 
  a 
  creek 
  called 
  Deyoshtoraron, 
  or 
  West 
  Canada 
  

   creek 
  to 
  Burnetsfield. 
  

  

  Morgan 
  said 
  that 
  Ga-ne'-ga-ha'-ga 
  was 
  the 
  upper 
  Mohawk 
  castle, 
  

   in 
  the 
  town 
  of 
  Danube 
  and 
  nearly 
  opposite 
  East 
  Canada 
  creek, 
  de- 
  

   fining 
  this 
  as 
  possessor 
  of 
  the 
  Hint, 
  which 
  is 
  the 
  national 
  name 
  of 
  

   the 
  Mohawks. 
  This 
  village 
  was 
  really 
  the 
  Indian 
  Canajoharie 
  of 
  

   1750, 
  the 
  name 
  being 
  retained 
  as 
  the 
  Mohawks 
  moved 
  up 
  the 
  river. 
  

   At 
  that 
  time 
  they 
  had 
  but 
  two 
  castles, 
  while 
  in 
  1634 
  they 
  had 
  four 
  

   east 
  of 
  the 
  present 
  Canajoharie. 
  

  

  Ga-ron'-da-ga-ra'-on, 
  big 
  tree, 
  was 
  the 
  western 
  limit 
  of 
  the 
  Bur- 
  

   netsfield 
  patent 
  of 
  1725. 
  The 
  latter 
  part 
  of 
  the 
  name 
  is 
  incorrectly 
  

   written. 
  

  

  Ga-yo-ha'-ra 
  or 
  Sa-go-ha'-ra, 
  where 
  I 
  washed, 
  was 
  one 
  name 
  of 
  

   East 
  Canada 
  creek, 
  having 
  the 
  former 
  form 
  on 
  Sauthier's 
  map. 
  It 
  

   has 
  also 
  been 
  written 
  Kuyahoora. 
  

  

  Hon-ne-da'-ga, 
  hilly 
  place, 
  is 
  a 
  name 
  recently 
  applied 
  to 
  Jock's 
  

   lake.
