It would not appear, however, that Awatobi was founded prior to Sikyatki, nor is it stated that the refugees from Sikyatki built Awatobi, which is within the bounds of possibility, but it seems to be quite generally conceded that the Sikyatki tragedy antedated the arrival of the first Spaniards.
Mrs. Crosse had once kept a girls' school could it be that there was some connection between teaching and witchcraft? had met with misfortune, and had at length been reduced to beggary.
