Weputing, Weepitung, Webotuck, Weepatuck (N. Y. and Conn. Rec.), given as the name of a "high mountain," in the Sackett Patent, was translated by Dr. Trumbull, from Conn. Records: "_Weepatuck,_ 'Place of the narrow pass,' or 'strait.'" (See Wassaic.) Querapogatt, a boundmark of the Sackett Patent, is, apparently, a compound of _Quenne,_ "long," _pog_ (paug), "pond," and _att_ locative--"Beginning at the (a) long pond." The name is met in _Quine-baug,_ without locative suffix, signifying "Long Pond" simply. She'kom'eko, preserved as the name of a small stream which rises near Federal Square, Duchess County, and flows thence north to Roelof Jansen's Kill, was primarily the name of an Indian village conspicuous in the history of the labors of the Moravian missionaries. [FN-1] It was located about two miles south of Pine Plains in the valley of the stream. Dr. Trumbull translated: "_She'com'eko,_ modern _Chic'omi'co,_ from _-she, -che_ (from _mishe_ or _k'che_), 'great,' and _comaco,_ 'house,' or 'enclosed place'--'the great lodge,', or 'the great village.'" [FN-2] We have the testimony of Loskiel that the occupants of the village were "Mahicander Indians." * * * * * [FN-1] The field of the labors of the Moravian missionaries extended to Wechquadnach, Pachquadnach, Potatik, Westenhoek and Wehtak, on the Housatenuc. _Wechquadnach_ (Wechquetank, Loskiel) was at the end of what is now known as Indian Pond, lying partly in the town of North East, Duchess County, and partly in Sharon, Conn. It was the Gnadensee, or "Lake of Grace," of the missionaries. _Wequadn'ach_ means "At the end of the mountain" between which and the lake the Indian village stood. _Pachquadn'ach_ was on the opposite side of the pond; it means "Clear bare mountain land." _Wehtak_ means "Wigwam place." _Pishgachtigok_ (Pach-gat-gock, German notation), was about twenty miles south of Shekomeko, at the junction of Ten Mile River and the Housatonuc. It means, "Where the river divides," or branches. (See Schaghticoke.) _Westenhoek,_ noted above, is explained in another connection. _Housatonuc,_ in N. Y. Land Papers _Owassitanuc,_ stands for _A-wass-adene-uc,_ Abn.; in Delaware, _Awossi,_ "Over, over there, beyond," _-actenne,_ "hill or mountain," with locative _-uk,_ "place," "land"; literally, "A place beyond the hill." (Trumbull.) It is not the name of either the hill or the river, to which it was extended, but a verbal direction. An Indian village called Potatik by the Moravian missionaries, was also on the Housatonuc, and is written in one form, _Pateook._ [FN-2] A translation from the Delaware _Scha-gach-we-u,_ "straight," and _meek_ "fish"--an eel--eel place--has been widely quoted. The translation by Dr. Trumbull is no doubt correct. [Illustration: The Highlands West From Little Stony Brook]
