GAS, THE GREATEST FLEE OF “ SNOQUALMIE” The modern word “Him” was originally spelled “Eim,” from which the ancient word “Eimmanuel” and the modern word “Emmanuel” are derived. When spoken by Manons, the word “Einnamuel” sound ed as “Eimmanon.” The last syllable of Snoqualmie is the word “Elm” re versed, and means “Individual, or Small Portion.” The remainder of Snoqualmie reversed forms the word "Lauqous,” and is the name that was applied to skin and skull collecting cannibals with whom tropical America and Manon were at war. The letter “W” originates from the use of the double “UU” and the original pronunciation of “Laukous” is “Law- qous.” The Lawqous are sometimes referred to as the “Kitchen Midden Indians.” Kitchen Midden means “Glutton, or Stomach Worship.” The name “Negro” that is now applied to Manons, is derived from the appellation “Knee Goers,” meaning people who go to their knees when seeking Divine favor. Before the Revolutionary War, what is now Rogue River was known as Rough River. That name was too rad ical to suit some of the new arrivals, and they called it Rude River, which the Indians pronounced "Rod” and the stream was known as “Rod River” for a number of years. But the thieves soon gained the majority and the present name “Rogue” was applied, which is less desirable than the name "Rough” that was applied to the stream by the French Missionaries, whose line of communication was cut by the Revolutionary War. “Battle of Words” Contains Many Interesting Things About American History That Is Not Generally Known P o c k e t E d itio n by M ail, $ 1 .0 0 J.
