And Ha,yalik"awe^ came paddling after him, and, it is said, | the 



45 five tribes traveled after him. Then || they arrived at Qalogwis, 

 and ^maxiiyalidze gave away blankets | and lynx skins and dressed 

 deer skins and mink skin blankets and yellow-cedar blankets | to 

 those whom he had invited. | 



After ^maxuyaUdze had given a potlatch to his guests, | then 



50 ^walas Kwax^ilanokiime^, the father of O^maxtlalaLe^ || and of his 

 younger brother ^walas ^nEm5gwis, and Yix'agame^, and | Haya- 

 hk'awe^ said that they would build houses atQ!abe^, and DzEnx"- 

 q !ayo | built a house at Adap ! and Lalax's^Endayo built a house at 

 Qalogwis, I and after Lalax's^Endayo had finished building his 

 house, I the ancestor of the numaym Kukwak !um came from 



55 Waq !anak" || and they at once built a house at Qalogwis, and then 

 came SenL !e | and he also built a house at Qalogwis, and | Waliba^ye 

 did the same, for he just came paddling along and saw | the smoke of 

 Adap!. Then he paddled and went there, and | at once he built a 



60 house; and Waliba^ye came from || GwaxLala, when he first became 

 a man. The ancestors of the | numayms LeLEged and Leq !Em built 

 houses at Adap ! They | came from Os^Eq". That is how it hap- 

 pened that they came together. | Now they invited one another in 

 the villages Qalogwis and | Q!abe^ and Adap! for they were ready in 



65 the villages they had built. || That is all now. |
