Note 41 — Chapter VII

For an account of the shrewd rascality of this Chinook chief, see Ross, Adventures, vol vii of our series. The marriage of Comcomly’s daughter with McDougall, is characteristically related by Irving in Astoria. An engraving of the tomb of this chief is given in Wilkes, Narrative of United States Exploring Expedition during the years 1838-42 (Philadelphia, 1849). Wilkes claims that the chief’s skull was carried to Glasgow by a Hudson’s Bay Company agent.—Ed.
