 the I younger brother of LEk'Emaxod (III 9), spoke, and asked

 brother's) | has a heavy weight. Now, come, son-in-law Qliimxod 

 (IV 4), to your wife!" | Thus he said, and stopped speaking. Then 

 Qliimxod (IV 4) arose | in his canoe. PEnqOlas (III 10) had told 

 him to stand up | and hsten to his words. Then PEnqiilas (III 10) 



10 asked Omaeli^lak" (IV 7) || to go to her husband with the six slaves. | 

 Immediately three slaves went, one after another. | Omaeli^ak" 

 (IV 7) followed close behind the three | slaves, and three other 

 slaves followed Omaeli^ak" (IV 7). | They went down the beach into 



15 the canoe of Qlumx'od (IV 4). |1 There they sat down, and Qlumx'od 

 (IV 4) sat next | to his wife Omaeli^ak" (IV 7). Then PEnqiilas 

 (III 10) spoke again, | and said, "These six slaves are the marriage 

 mat of our princess, | that the princess of Qlumx'od (IV 4) may not 

 sit on the floor of your | house, son-in-law, when she goes in. Now, 



20 this Dzonoq !wa || house-dish, the wolf house-dish, the grizzly-bear 

 house-dish, and the beaver | house-dish shall go. These are tlie 

 house-dishes for Omaeh^lak"'s (IV 7) food, for all the tribes, | which 

 are given by her father. Chief LEk'Emaxod (III 9) ; and | you shall 

 have this name, son-in-law. Your name shall be Qlomoqa (IV 4),
