Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Washington Historical Quarterly, 1918, Vol. 9 The natives of the country gained a large part of their livelihood from the pursuit, and manifested much hardihood in the capture Of the different kinds Of whales. The chase was invested with much superstition, both by the Aleutians and the Eskimo. Certain cere monies were Observed, particular care being taken as to the weapons used, and much dependence was placed in charms and medicine. Among the Aleutians even human bodies were stolen and secreted to give the possessors good fortune in the hunt.3 The Kodiak whalers Qised a harpoon with a slate head which detached from the handle and remained in the wound, causing death, after which the: carcass was towed or drifted with the tide to the shore. The Eskimos used harpoons Of fine workmanship equipped with heads of ivory and slate; and floats were attached to impede the progress Of the animal. The taking Of a whale was an occasion Of great rejoicing among the native inhabitants. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Washington Historical Quarterly, Vol. 1: October, 1906 W'ashington is still a coast and river state. Excepting the broad plains about the head of the Cowlitz, Chehalis and Puyal lup rivers, and about the Palouse and Spokane. The pioneer has as yet but scattered settlements in the interior. On the Sound and Grays Harbor, on the Columbia and its numberless branches population still resides. It must be noted. How ever, that the railway, penetrating the territory inaccessible by steamers, has expanded the settled lands, especially east of the mountains, and widened the country about the few centers here tofore drained by the trails and packroads. It is along the shores and river banks that the elemental nomenclature of W'ashington must be studied; on the trail and the railroad the settler is plant ing new American and immigrant names, or those derived from the aborigines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Washington Historical Quarterly, Vol. 1: October, 1906; Issued Quarterly The geographical names in the United States are derived from two great sources: Indian and European. Among the first ex plorers and settlers the former dominated; with the second gen cration of colonists the European names began to dominate. These early colonists looked to their European homes and per sonages for Plymouth, Boston, Albemarle, St. Mary's, Ft. Chris tina, New Rochelle, New Orleans, St. Louis, Santa Fe; or else from their own languages derived names indicative of local con ditions or feelings: Providence, Philadelphia. \vhen these set tlements themselves began to send OH scions to the upper waters of the Atlantic streams or into the transallegheny country, new names were taken from a variety of sources; from the old Euro pean places and personages, from Greece, Rome, or from classical compositions, e. G. Louisville, Athens, Rome, Oxford, Gallipolis. The Indian names were taken from the local Indian designations, and today stand as monuments to the natives' haunts and homes and as milestones to their westward movement before the coming white man. As the white man came his names told of the fond recollections of his distant home but as he penetrated the wilder ness and the mountains, these recollections dim and finally fade, to be replaced from the new native home in the old Atlantic col onies. Yet the names scattered from the Alleghenies to the Pacific by the constant stream of colonizing immigrants tell of the nomenclatural geneology; the Swede, Italian and German, the Russian, Dutch and Pole, even in our own days repeat the christening of the cavalier and Puritan.

This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Washington Historical Quarterly, 1915, Vol. 6 Turning now to the sources of the Columbia, an interesting contrast exists between the beginning of trade there with that on the upper Mis souri River across the Rocky Mountain range. Manual Lisa is the name prominently connected with the Missouri River at'that period; immediately following the return of the Lewis and Clark Expedition Lisa built a trad ing post on the Yellowstone River at themouth of the Big Horn and began to purchase furs for transport to St. Louis; that was during the summer of 1807. At the same time David Thompson, a partner offthe Northwest Company of Canada, was building an. Establishment at the head waters of the Columbia, from which he transported furs to the Rainy Lakes; and fort'william on Lake Superior. Manual Lisa had troubles With snags and Indians along the Missouri and was resourceful to overcome them. David Thompson experienced even greater difficulties in crossing the Rocky Mountains and descending the long course of the Saskatchewan River to Lake Winnipeg. David Thompson is one of the most remarkable figures connected with the history of the Columbia River; the record of his career written with his own hand is not only of great scientific value, but an ih spiration to any earnest student of the history of this Pacific Northwest. He has been described as the greatest land geographer the English race has ever produced. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
