Often the squaws would dig a paws for fooJ. They had most of tho work to do .while the warriors just hunted and fished. They made their clothing of skins of animals they caught and tholr wigwams of the large skins such as deer nnd buffalo. Since then nnd at the present time, many arrow heads, spearheads, and cooking uten sils arc found In these old Indian haunts. They made their cooking utensils of stono ami got somo of their first flint near Oorrls. They chlppcU It until It was the shape of an arrowhead. Sometimes tho Indians poisoned their arrowhead with roots and berrle. Tho hows were mado of different kinds of wood found In the forest. I.hnl Xcnr ICrno Thoso tribes of Indian lled at Corpe Island nnj Teatcrs Landing. both about four miles from Keno nnd near the California-Oregon Pow er company's slto which Is about n mllo and a half from Kcno. This tribe of Indians always burned tho chief's weapons and wampum with Iilm. They wero quite Intelligent as the whlto people had settled around them and had communicated with them a great deal. They also purchased useful-articles from tholr whlto neighbors such as guns, food and clothing. Tho Indians tor tho .most part got along well with the whites. Hobort WSilttlo came to Keno and built himself, a homo of logs to live whlto ho took up his homestead on 'the bind' (surrounding Kcno. Ho choose this place becauso the land was fairly welt adapted to agricul tural purposes, and the river be ing so close he thought' It would be an Ideal spot for stockr.ililng, which later It proved to be. Ho ran the ferry ncross tho river about a quar ter of a mile down the river from Kcno. There was a little travel across the river to tho postofflec which was then locate J on the Km motL ranch, a mllo and a half down from Ke.no c3 the road to Klamath Falls. Robert l'nunott acted In the capacity of postmaster. The road Instead of coming through Kcno look a northerly direction, around by Spencers, but later In 1SS0 Whit tlo and some others built a wooden bridge, whero tho present oao now stands.
