[FN] See Saratoga. _Ti-oneenda-howe_ was applied by the Mohawks to the Hoosick, and _Ti-ononda-howe_ to the Batten Kill as positive boundmarks, the former from its hemlock-clad hills (_onenda_), and the latter from its conical hills (_ononda_). The late Horatio Hale wrote me: "_Ti-ononda-howe_ is evidently a compound term involving the word _ononda_ (or _ononta_), 'hill or mountain.' _Ti-oneenda-howe,_ in like manner, includes the word _onenda_ (or _onenta_), 'hemlock.' There may have been certain notable hills or hemlocks which as landmarks gave names to the streams or located them. The final syllables _howe,_ are uncertain." (See Di-ononda-howe.) Cossayuna, said to be from the Mohawk dialect and to signify "Lake of the pines," is quoted as the name of a lake in the town of Argyle, Washington County. The translation is correct, substantially, but the name is Algonquian--a corruption of _Coossa,_ "Pine," [FN] and _Gummee,_ "Lake," or standing water. The terms are from the Ojibway dialect, and were probably introduced by Dr. Schoolcraft. * * * * * [FN] It is of record that "the borders of Hudson's River above Albany, and the Mohawk River at Schenectady," were known, in 1710, as "the best places for pines of all sorts, both for numbers and largeness of trees." (Doc. Hist. N. Y., iii, 656.) Mass. _Kowas-'ktugh,_ "pine tree." The name is met in many orthographies. Anaquassacook, the name of a patent in Washington County, and also of a village and of a stream of water, was, primarily, the name of a boundmark. The locative has not been ascertained. _Anakausuk-ook,_ "At the end of a course," or as far the brook. Podunk, a brook so called in the town of Fort Ann, Washington County, is met in several other places. (See Potunk, L. I.) Its meaning has not been ascertained. Quatackquaohe, entered on Pownal's map as the name of a tract of land on the south side of a stream, has explanation in the accompanying entry, "Waterquechey, or Quatackquaohe." Waterquechey (English) means "Moist boggy ground," indicating that _Quatackquaohe_ is an equivalent of _Petuckquiohke,_ Mass., "Round-land place," _i. e._ elevated hassocks of earth, roots, etc. The explanation by Gov. Pownal may supply a key to the translation of other names now interpreted indefinitely.
