A bough that’s partly broke
Holds strong above tide

Sahsima

January 4, 2012

“Sahsima, meaning ‘harpoon’, was the original name identified by Songhees elder James Fraser for the point where the Chinese Cemetery is located: Hayls the Transformer, with spirit companions Raven and Mink, came by in his canoe, frightening away the seal the harpooner had been stalking. The harpooner rebuked them. Hayls turned him to stone as he stood there poised to throw the harpoon, saying, ‘you’ll be boss for seals…from Sooke to Nanaimo.’”
