Author's note:
"This man [Ishi] is undoubtedly wild. He has pieces of
deer thong in place of ornaments in the lobes of his ears
and a wooden plug in the septum of his nose. He recognizes
most of my Yana words and a fair proportion of his own
seem to be identical [with mine]. Some of his, however, are
either quite different or else my pronunciation of them is
very bad, because he doesn't respond to them repeated."
