  OMAHA 
  TRIBE 
  

  

  [ETH. 
  ANN. 
  27 
  

  

  After 
  this 
  song, 
  one 
  in 
  fast 
  time 
  was 
  sung. 
  All 
  the 
  lodge 
  of 
  the 
  

   "eldest 
  son" 
  joined 
  in 
  the 
  singing 
  during 
  which 
  the 
  following 
  move- 
  

   ments 
  took 
  place: 
  The 
  four 
  "children" 
  passed 
  around 
  the 
  fire 
  four 
  

   times, 
  and 
  then 
  went 
  to 
  the 
  lodge 
  of 
  the 
  "youngest 
  son" 
  at 
  the 
  south- 
  

   east 
  and 
  "shot" 
  four 
  members 
  at 
  the 
  end 
  of 
  the 
  line; 
  the 
  latter 
  fell 
  

   rigid 
  but 
  in 
  a 
  few 
  moments 
  arose, 
  took 
  their 
  places 
  behind 
  the 
  four 
  

   "children" 
  and 
  in 
  single 
  file 
  the 
  eight 
  circled 
  the 
  fire. 
  The 
  last 
  four 
  

   (hen 
  "shot" 
  four 
  of 
  the 
  lodge 
  of 
  the 
  "eldest 
  son," 
  who 
  fell, 
  arose, 
  and 
  

   followed 
  the 
  others, 
  and 
  the 
  twelve 
  circled 
  the 
  fire. 
  Then 
  the 
  last 
  

   four 
  "shot" 
  lour 
  members 
  of 
  the 
  lodge 
  of 
  the 
  "second 
  son," 
  who 
  fell, 
  

   arose, 
  and 
  took 
  their 
  places 
  behind 
  the 
  others, 
  and 
  the 
  sixteen 
  

   circled 
  the 
  fire. 
  Then 
  the 
  last 
  four 
  "shot" 
  four 
  from 
  the 
  lodge 
  of 
  

   the 
  "daughter," 
  who 
  fell, 
  arose, 
  and 
  followed 
  the 
  others 
  and 
  the 
  

   twenty 
  went 
  around 
  the 
  fire.
