a name. | Then the grandfather (III 8) of YaqoLas (V 1) — that is, the 

 200 father (III 8) of the mother (IV 8) of YaqoLas (V 1), — || died, for her 

 father was Hamisk'Enis (III 8). He was the chief of the numaym | 

 Ts lets !Elwalag3,me^ of the Nimliish; and the mother of | YaqoLas 

 (V 1), ^na^nEmp lEng' ihij'ugwa (IV 8), had no time to take her 

 father's seat, when | she also was taken ill and died. Now YaqoLas 

 (V 1) I was with child, and the cliiefs of the Ninikish wished in vain li 

 5 for YaqoLas (V 1) to take the seat of her grandfather, Hamisk'Enis 

 (III 8). I Then YaqoLas (V 1) said that she would take it after a 

 while. Then she had another | son (VI 3) ; and when he began to 

 grow up, I YaqoLas (V 1) and Wag'idis (V 2) gave blankets to the 

 Nimkish, | and then the new child took the seat of Hamisk'Enis 



10 (III 8) in his numaym the || Ts!ets!Elwalagame^; and his name was 

 Hamisk'Enis (VI 3), although he was | a child, and he also 

 took his seat. That is all about this. | 



Now I wall speak again about Wag'idis (V 2), when he wooed the 

 princess of | ^maxwa (V 3), head chief of the Mamaleleqala on behalf 

 of his eldest son | Doqwayis (VI 1) ; for the princess of ^maxwa (V3) 



15 was Hamdzid (VI 4). Now II Doqwayis (VI 1) married her. It was 

 not a long time before they had | a son (VII 1). When the son of 

 Doqwayis (VI 1) was | ten months old, he was given the name 

 Wawalk'ine (VII 1), for this is the name of the child | of Doqwayis. 

 Now the child got a name from his | mother's side. Then ^maxwa
