after he had done so, he broke off hemlock-branches to || make a house 75 

 of hemlock-branches; and after makmg his house, | he went out to 

 eat different kinds of berries | of the lake; and after he had had 

 enough, he went back | to his house of hemlock-branches, and he lay 

 down on his back. Then he thought about | his dream, and what 

 the stout man had said to him. || When evening came, he washed him- SO 

 self in the lake; and | after he had done so, he went into this house of 

 hemlock-branches and lay down on his back. | Soon he went to sleep. 

 Then he dreamed of another man | who came and stood hi the house, 

 not like the stout man of whom he had first dreamed. | The man of his 

 new dream was medium-sized. || The man spoke, and said, " Why do 85 

 you come | to this supernatural place, friend?" Thus he said. | 

 And K !wak Iwabalas rephed at once, and said to him, | "I come to 

 this supernatural place because I want to get supernatural power | 

 from it, friend!" Thus he said to him. Then the man spoke 

 again, || and said, "Take care! We have been informed by | our 90 

 friend X'imsElilEla, who came to see you last night — for | he is the 

 one who first goes to see those who come to this supernatural place — ■ | 

 I am HoxhoxulsEla. Now, take care ! and | go on washing yourself in 

 this supernatural lake, so that the || human smell will come off, friend, 95
