HALL 10. 
ESKIMO. 
The Eskimo tribes are separated into two great groups, a 
western occupying the shores of Alaska and the British posses- 
sions, and an eastern occupying Labrador, Greenland and the ad- 
jacent regions; both are closely allied in blood, habits, customs 
and arts. They subsist largely by hunting and fishing, and 
evince much ingenuity in the pursuit of these callings.
