 hand side of the door, and the other half | on the left hand side

 they sing the host song of | YaqoLadze, a man goes up to the 

 roof of the feast house. | There is a gutter on the back of the 



20 long square cedar beam. The carved vomiting || man is at the 

 other end of it in this manner.' Then they put the | oil box on

 oil into the gutter on the back of the | vomiting beam, and the oil 

 runs along the gutter on the back to the hole | behind the head

 fire in the middle of the feast house. This is called | by the Indians

 it from anyone. Not one man | claims to know from whom the
