Onidah / Oneidah Variants

Variant Spelling of ONIDAH

- Alma 47:5 (2x)

O, P: Oneidah

Discussion: Both occurrences in Alma 47:5 have the spelling Oneidah in O and P; the 1830 compositor set the name as Onidah, perhaps based on an incorrect spelling for the Iroquois tribe. The hill in Alma 32:4 and the place of arms in Alma 47:5 are distinct.

Summary: Skousen accepts Onidah for Alma 32:4, and Oneidah for the two occurrences in Alma 47:5.
