"Weenat Shassit tribe number 6, IORM" refers to an extremely odd organisation made up entirely of white Americans - the IORM stands for "Improved Order of Red Men."

These strange people traced their ancestry to those who took part in the Boston Tea Party (dressed unconvincingly as natives) and were part of the American version of the Freemasons. They "emulated" the regalia and other elements of Iroquois culture - at least they convinced themselves that is what they were doing. Any resemblance between these people and real Senecas, Onondagas or Cayugas was strictly accidental.

They limited membership to "free white men of good moral character and standing, aged at least 21 great suns . . ."
