Description
Excerpt from Natick Dictionary
It is much to be regretted that a careless habit of thought takes it for granted that a good Indian word of one locality is a good Indian word of another, and that names may be transferred from North to South or from South to North at the free will of an innkeeper or of a poet. Such transfers of words, which in the beginning amount almost to falsehood, cause more confusion and more as time goes by.
