_Mousham._ Grandfather.

_Glooscap._ The beneficent being whose deeds are generally
superhuman, and who figures in many heroic tales of the
Passamaquoddies. The term as applied to a man is one of
contempt. To call a man glooscap, or a woman glooscapess, is
to call them liars.

_Chematiquess._ The big rabbit. There are many tales in
relation to Chematiquess. The new one which I have treats of
his efforts to escape Glooscap.

_Mickemnise._ The good fellow. I have also heard the
Ouargamiss called Mickeminn.

_Hespens._ The raccoon.

_Quarbet._ The giant beast.

_M'Sartoo._ The Morning Star.

_Consuce._ The ancients; said to be the fabricators of stone
things. These were the makers of the stone axes or tomahawks
which are found in the territory once inhabited by the
Passamaquoddies.

The accompanying plate illustrates the above mentioned story of Pogump
and Pookjinsquess, the original of which was drawn on birch bark by
Noel Josephs.
