Songs Connected with Kare Medicines 



Sung by O'deni^gun 



These are examples of the songs which may be sung at the dance 

 following an initiation and also in the lodges during the evenings 

 which precede the ceremony. They are songs which can be sung only 

 by those who purchase the right to sing them. O'deni'gtin, who 

 sang all the songs in this group, is said to be "one of the most 

 powerful medicine-men on the White Earth reservation." (See fig. 7, 

 p. 100.) 



The word "medicine" as here used refers to any substance by 

 means of which results are supposed to be mysteriously attained. 

 The narratives concerning these songs were given by the singer and 

 are transcribed as nearly as possible in the words of the interpreter.
