On the 21st, _before_ reaching the second stream which he noted later as having crossed, he wrote that "half a mile" _west_ of Canajohare Creek he came to a village of "nine houses of the name of _Osquage,_" which gave name to the stream now known as the _Otsquage,_ which he also called _Okquage_ and _Okwahohage,_ "Wolves"--a village of the Wolf tribe. On the 23d he forded the Otsquage, and after going "half a mile" (Dutch) _west_ of that stream, came "to a village named _Cawaoge._" It had fourteen houses and stood "on a very high hill." On his return trip he wrote the name _Nawaoga;_ on old maps it is _Canawadage,_ and has since 1635 been known as the _Nowadage_ or Fort Plain Creek. _He did not cross this stream,_ but after stopping at the village for a short time moved on "by land," presumably inland either north or south, and "going another mile" came to the "Fourth Castle," which he called _Tenotoge_ and _Tenotohage,_ and Father Jogues called _Te-ouonte-ogén,_ and also "the furthest castle." It was no doubt the principal castle of the Wolf tribe, strongly palisaded to defend the western approach to the seat of the nation, as was _Onekagoncka_ to guard the east. It was, he wrote, composed of fifty-five houses like the others. It stood in a valley evidently, probably on the bank of the creek, as he wrote that the stream (Otsquaga) which he had crossed in the morning "ran past" the castle; that he saw on the opposite (east) "bank" of the stream "a good many houses filled with corn and beans," and also extensive flat lands. Further than this topographical description the location of the castle cannot be determined. [FN-10] Van Curler's miles to the castle from _Onekagonka,_ as nearly as can be counted from his Journal, were about six Dutch or about twenty-one English, or as General Clark counted Dutch miles, about eighteen English. As Van Curler traveled "on the ice" for the most considerable part of the way from _Onekagoncka,_ and followed necessarily the bend in the river and diverged at times from the shore line, exact computation of his miles cannot be made. General Clark located the castle at Spraker's Basin, thirteen miles by rail west of Aurie's Creek. Van Curler located it _on the west side of Otsquage Creek._ On Simeon DeWitt's map of survey of patents in 1790 (Doc. Hist. N. Y., i, 420), the direct line from the west side of the mouth of Otsquage Creek to the west side of the mouth of Aurie's Creek is fifteen and three-tenths miles; following the bend in the Mohawk, as Van Curler did, it is seventeen and one-half miles. Granting that the lithographic reproduction of the map may vary from the original, it nevertheless shows conclusively that _Onekagoncka_ must have been located at or near Aurie's Creek, The suggestion that it was located on a hill on the east side of Schohare Creek is untenable, as is also the suggestion that it was at Klein, eight miles east of Schohare Creek.
