| Abstract | Chief Tsiba-sa of Kitkatla has died at 98. 'The writer as a chief of the Wolf clan was visited by messengers that had been sent out by the Kitkatlas to invite all of the Tsimshian chiefs and their spokesmen. I made a complete record of all the events... Even though I lived in Prince Rupert the delgatio[n] came to my residence very early in the morning and as soon as they entered they sang a dirge song and gave me my ground hog gift which notified me that there was a royal death at Kitkatla...' | ||
