I believe the answer is:

cherokee

(Other definitions for cherokee that I've seen before include "Might the reek echo badly for the native American?" , "Perhaps brave" , "Native American people, originally living in the Appalachian Mountains" , "tongue" , "American tribesman" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
