 two warriors of the ^walas Kwag'ul came in; the one was named | 

 GwaxwaLKylg'ihs, the other one was named K ilEm, for these | were 

 their warrior names, and each carried a !! wreath of hemlock branches. 45 

 Then GwaxwaLEylg'ihs spoke and | said, "O! friend Yag'is," — for 

 that was the warrior name of NEqap lEnk'Em, | Yag'is — "We came 

 here, I and our friend K ilEm, | to ask you to go to war that some 

 one else maj^ wail on account of our past sister. | This is one skull 

 now. It shall be hung up || on this post on the floor, the keeper of 50 

 my promise." Thus he said and put it on the | post on the floor. | 



As soon as he had finished, he said, "Very hungry for men | is this 

 great raven," and as soon as his speech was at an end, | K'ilEm 

 spoke and said, "I will sit in front of the steersman of || your war 55 

 canoe, friend Yag'is. I am not at all afraid of this new [ world." 

 Thus he said and put the wreath of hemlock on the post on the floor. | 

 "This I obtained in war, one skull, which I put upon the | post on 

 the floor, that keeps my promise." Thus said K'llEm. | 



As soon as his speech was at an end, Llax'Elag'ilis spoke. || This 60 

 was the name of a warrior of the numaym Maamtag'ila. | He said, 

 "I want to eat men, real hungry for men is | this great cannibal." 

 Thus he said and took the hemlock branch and | hung it on top of
