 around his neck the thick | cedar-bark ring which carried the winter

 bear-skin blanket while he was dancing. After | they had sung four 

 songs for him, he was pacified. || Now he had the name given him in 30 

 marriage by K' ladalag ills (IV 4). Now his name was | Hamtse- 

 ^stasElag'ilis (VI); and after this he was no longer called Yagwis

 fourteen hundred blankets to the four Kwag'ul tribes; | and after the 

 blankets had been given away, the Kwag'ul went out. || This was the 35 

 marriage mat given by l !aL lElEwedzEmga (IV 3) to her husband, ] 

 fourteen hundred blankets. Now | K" !adalag'ilis (IV 4) is going to 

 pay the marriage debt to his brother-in-law ^maxulag'ilis (IV 9) the 

 coming winter. I That is all about this. I
