1350 ETHNOLOGY OF THE KWAKIUTL [eth. ann. 35 



37 HayosdesElas; | for LaleliL !a was the eldest son of the children of his 

 father X'ax'Elqlayogwi^hik" | and therefore LalellLla owned all the 

 privileges | of his father; and LaleliL !a also gave away his name when 



40 he had invited the people, || as I have already told, that is, to Hayosde- 

 sElas. Now I HayosdesElas owned them in his numaym G'exsEm, 

 and also ] the former seat of LaleliL !a, and nobody objected to what | 

 LaleliL !a had done, for Haj-osdesElas was his only son. | 



45 HayosdesElas put away all the house dishes, and the feast || name 

 Kwax'se^stala, and all that was given to him by his father | LaleUi. !a, 

 until the time when he would give a feast. That is called | by the 

 Indians "putting away the privileges," when a feast is not immedi- 

 ately given and | a copper is not immediately given away by the 

 father for his son. | 



Now they were going to give property to HayosdesElas in the seat 



50 of his father || LaleliL !a and they gave property to LaleliL !a in the 

 last seat of the | numaym G" exsEm, for he had now no seat, because 

 he had given over his seat | to his son HayosdesElas. | 



Wiiwalk'ine, that is HayosdesElas, was always staying with his | 

 mother, Ts !alaliii^lak", who had now for her husband Awaxalag'iUs, || 



55 and Awaxalag'ilis believed that Wawalk'ine, — that is, | Hayos- 

 desElas, — was his own son; and when Wawalk'ine was grown up, | 

 Awax3Jag'ilis invited the different tribes on behalf of his | son
