So are the Sonoma dialects, as represented by the Tshokoyem vocabulary

and the Chocouyem and Yonkiousme Paternosters.

So is the _Olamentke_ of Kostromitonov in Baer's Beiträge.

So much for the forms of speech to the north of the Gulf of San

Francisco. On the south the philology is somewhat more obscure. The
