Toklat; river, tributary to Tanana river, from the west, about 50 miles above the mouth of the latter. This may be identical with Nushakantna of Petrof, 1880, or, as is more likely, with Tutlut river, also of Petrof. Name from Allen, 1885, who wrote it Toclat and says it means dish wuter. Tokshook, entrance; see Takchuk.

The statement in the Coast Pilot (1883, p. 167) that Meade gave the name Traders is not borne out by his chart (U. S. Hydrographic No. 225). On that chart the name is Traitors. This error has been accepted and fol- lowed in recent C. S. publications. The name Traitors has vanished. Traders remains and is applied (on C. S. chart 8283) as here given and on C. S. chart 8050 to a large island or peninsula south of these.

Trinity; cape, the southwestern point of Kodiak. Named by Cook in 1778. So called by the English and early Russians. Tebenkof, 1849, following Lisianski, 1805, calls it Iuzhnoi (south), and thus it has appeared as South and Utchno. Has also been called Trinidad. According to Petrof the native name is Aliulik.
