first teacher among the Kiowa, and remains today the best extended
account of the tribe, despite some inaccuracies in his statement of
their traditions, due in part to the fact that his information was
obtained chiefly through the imperfect medium of the sign language
before the days of competent Kiowa interpreters. He is still (1897)
living at Mosk, Ohio, and has aided the author in various ways in
connection with the present work.

ADDITIONS AND CORRECTIONS
- Gray-eagle.—Kiowa Apache (figure 58, page 247). The Apache delegates
at Washington in March-April, 1898, do not know this name,
and say the picture is intended for that of another member of the
delegation of 1872, a Kiowa Apache young man, not a chief, named
Ná-ishañ-déná, "Apache-man."
- Dävéko—(figure 60, page 250). The name seems to mean
"Recognizes-enemies," referring to one who can distinguish at a great
distance the identity of an approaching hostile party.
- Goñk`oñ—(Plate LXXIV). "Defends-his-tipi," i. e., one who stands
guard at his tipi and prevents a hostile entrance. The name is
inherited from his grandfather. Goñkoñ is the brother of Dego, alias
Peso or Pacer, former principal chief of the Kiowa Apache. (See English-Kiowa glossary).
- Ka-ati-wertz-ama-na—(figure 49, page 195). This name, as
written on the photograph furnished by former agent Lawrie Tatum,
seems to be a corrupted Comanche form, but neither the name nor the
picture can be identified by the Indians to whom it has been
submitted. He is described in the inscription as "a brave man, not
afraid of any Indian."
- Ná-ishañ-déna—instead of Ná-isha-déna, for the native name of
the Kiowa Apache (see page 245).
- Parker's ranch—instead of Barker's ranch, page 270.
- Dó-édalte—instead of Tó-édalte, page 270.
