Because the Cayuse are somewhat enigmatic (and so that you can see the
sort of stuff I submit to the OED!), I'll append most of my slips (in
HTML) for a revised CAYUSE entry. (The only sense the present edition
of the OED has for the word is that of the horse.) Cites arranged in
chronological order are the basic units of an entry in a historical
dictionary like the OED. (By no means all of these will be chosen by
the editors for inclusion.)<br>
