844 AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A FOX WOMAN. [ELH. ANN. 40. 
36 Qn Fox clothing see Forsyth, 1. ¢., p. 235; Catlin, Manners, 
passim; McKenney and Hall, History, passim; Busby, lL. ¢., pp. 96, 
97, 112, 113; Fulton, 1. c., pp. 443, 445, 446; Reports, Comm. Indian 
Affairs, 1897, p. 149. For the Sauk see also Beltrami, Pilgrimage, 
vol..2, p. 145. To-day Fox men ordinarily wear European clothing; 
but I have seen a few old-timers with roached hair, blankets, ete., for 
their daily apparel. On ceremonial occasions they nearly all wear 
clothing that is Indian to the extent that the tailoring is Indian, even 
if the clothing for the most part is of European materials. Buckskin 
leggings and moccasins are still worn on such occasions. Moccasins 
made of split leather and canvas are still frequently used on ordinary 
occasions. Women are far more retentive of their old-style clothing. 
Buckskin skirts and waists are now unknown, but the clothing Fox 
women normally wear is tailored entirely on Indian lines, though 
shoes and stockings have generally replaced moccasins and leggings. 
A few old women still wear leggings habitually. On gala occasions 
women’s clothes are more gaudy, and beautifully beaded buckskin 
moccasins are worn. 
37 The drum brought no doubt refers to the bringing of the Religion 
Dance to the Foxes by the Wisconsin Potawatomi.

lished data rather than contradict them. 
3° The two men are the same as brothers. If a woman’s husband 
dies, after the adoption-feast is held, if her parents-in-law like her 
they will ask an older brother to marry her so as to keep her in the 
family. Besides the “joking relation” which exists between brother- 
in-law and sister-in-law (frequently obscene; entirely different from 
that existing between a man and his sister’s daughter) there is 
another: after the death of the man’s wife, before he is released from 
death ceremonies, he must do as his sister-in-law says; but if he obeys 
the rules, he can make her his bride when four years are up; on 
the other hand, if the man does not live up to the rules, his sister-in- 
law acquires certain rights over him.
