66 at (1), (2), (3), and | (4)- When this is done, he takes another one of 
the same | length and lays it on top of the back-stop, and he | ties 
it at (1), (12), (11), and (10), and he does the same | with the other 
70 side at the entrance. As soon as there are eight || rows, it is finished. 
Then he takes pieces four spans and | four finger-widths in length 
and puts them down, and he | takes up another one and lays it on it, 
in this manner: He | ties them together at (1), 
and he places the other ones on (2) and (8), and | 
he also ties them at (4). When this is done he 
75 takes up another one || and places it one finger- 
width | apart from the first one and ties it on at 
both ends; and | he continues tying on all the others, going towards 
(4) and (3). As | soon as it is all covered, it is like this. 
When it is finished, he | goes up from the beach and 
80 breaks off hemlock-branches in the woods. He || carries 
them down to where he is making the perch-trap and | 
puts them down, and he goes up again and takes small 
clams, which he gets for bait | for his fish-trap. He car- 
ries them down and breaks the shells of the clams | and scatters them 
in the trap. As soon as this is done, he puts | the cover over the trap. 
85 He puts hemlock-branches on top of it, so that || it is dark inside, and 
he places four large stones | on top of the hemlock-branches to keep 
it under water. Then it is done. |
