Maybe this is also evidence of CJ in NW California: Harrington's 1943 paper
that I just mentioned also has (p. 209):
"The word meaning stick is also used meaning tree in all these [Pacific
Coast Athabaskan] languages, with which agrees the use of English stick
meaning both stick and tree in English local vernacular and in Chinook
jargon."
