Abstract

"I am about the last living daughter of the late Chief Saluskin. He was about 90 years old when he died. He died in 1918. I live on my allotment, which is between Parker and Wapato. I am 84 years old and was born at the home place. My mother's allotment was right here. I was born up by the canal. At one time we had a nice home here. I was the sister of Chief Weowicht (Alex Saluskin)'s father. My father, Chief Saluskin also took the name of Chief Weowicht...Weowicht Saluskin, who died in 1918. Around 1911 and 1912 he went to Washington for his tribe, four times he went to Washington, always fighting for the rights of his people."
