this place slants toward | the base of the cedar-tree. This place is 22 
not as wide open as the one which he chopped out first, | but it is 
much deeper than the one that he chopped out at the top, | at (1). 
When it is deep enough, it is this way: Then || he takes 25 
his wedge-bag and takes out his wedges V | and his | stone 
hammer, and he puts them down at (1) at the top of the 
cedar-tree. | Then he drives in the wedges with his stone hammer. | 
He hammers on each one at a time. | The seven wedges are all 
close together. When the top piece comes off, —_* : 
he turns it on its back. || Then he measures (CMisspowaan®) 30 
the thickness of one finger, | which he will split 
off from the top piece. He takes the short | marking-wedge and 
drives it into the log in this way: Then | he takes 
a straight-edged cedar-stick and places it on the 
end of the piece that had been wedged off from 
the | cedar-tree at (1), as far as (2), and he marks 
along it. After he has done so, || he takes his marking-wedge and 35 
his stone hammer, and puts his | marking wedge into the line that has 
been marked out, and drives it in with his hammer, | so that the 
wood splits a little. Then he pulls it out again | and puts it in at the 
end of the place where he drove it in before, and he pulls out his | 
marking-wedge and strikes it again with the hammer. He || does so 40 
along the whole length of the line that has been marked with his mark- 
ing-wedge. Then|he takes his wedges and drives them into the line that
