They sing well in church, and listen to preaching with great patience. Their leading preachers are Black Fox and David Owl. Both seem to be sober and sensible.. They-admire the owl for his silence ; and circum spection, and many, take that name, A while man was preaching at Bird gwn' vid Uwi as interpreter He used the word "conglomerated " and Mr. Owl declared there was no such word in Cherokee, and called another man to be "iinguister."
