TAPE #3 (ROLL 3)

Question: Chinook language?

Answer: Made up language. French, Latin and Indian and all that mixed.
Just made up. I remember old Father Chirouse, he was pretty good at that.
My Father worked with the French missionaries (at Mission). He understood
French but couldn't speak it. He could understand Latin but couldn't speak
it. In the church he used to interpret the priests.
