Abstract

"Many of the Yakimas, who are a congeries of tribes or people nearly allied in language, and quite so in customs and habits (and in religious fancies, as a rule), are quite civilzed, and are professed Christians. Many live in neat looking frame houses, have large fields, orchards and gardens, cattle and horses, pigs, goats and sheep. The majority however, do not live in civilized houses; but keep to the old Indian style of architecture, a large frame-work of posts and poles, covered with a rush matting, which they are skilled in making, although they often have fields, and barns, and excellent orchards."
