carried them into the house of Wanuk", but Q Iwalax' alayugwa 86 

 was no I relative of Wanuk", (but) she had no relatives living. | 

 Therefore she went into the house of Wanuk". | Then Maled intended 

 to seU his copper named Wax"se^stala, || and Q Iwalax' alayugwa 90 

 bought it with seven hundred and sixty | blankets (which she paid) 

 for the copper Wix^se^stala. Before | long Q Iwalax" alayugwa be- 

 came sick, and she also | died, and Wanuk" obtained by luck the 

 copper Wax"se^stala. | Now Wanuk" sold W^x^se^stala, and it was 

 bought II for five thousand one hundred and twenty blankets; | and 95 

 Wanuk" again invited aU the tribes; and | he took the name of the 

 father of Q Iwalax" alayugwa, | whose name was Wag" ides. Now 

 they stopped caUing Wanuk", Wanuk", | for he had the name 

 Wag" ides. Now || his child had the name Hamadzalas, and now 200 

 Wag" ides was called | chief because he had invited twice the tribes. | 

 Then the heart of Wag" ides was proud because he was spoken to as a 

 chief by | all the chiefs of all the tribes. And in the feast | his seat 

 was among the real chiefs. || 



Now, you. Chief Dr. Boas, you must have been surprised when I 5 

 went to I Chicago with Johnny Wanuk" and his wife Doqwayis' | — 

 that is ^maxulayugwa — when I called ^maxulayugwa a queen, | but 

 Johnny Wanuk" was just like a slave of his wife ^maxulayugwa. |
