Abstract

"Smohalla, the spiritualist and dreamer, is an Indian much inferior to Moses and subordinate to him. Smohalla is a medicine man of the Walla Wallas, and about 30 lodges pay him their allegiance. Personally he is about medium size, with a cunning and intelligent face, and has raised himself from a low position in his tribe to his present one by a skillful use of his own powers. He is of middle age. His allegiance to Moses dates from a personal combat between them about three years ago, in which the dreamer was soundly drubbed."
