been steaming quite a while, he | takes off the covering mats and he 
pulls out the yellow-cedar wood that has been steamed, | and he puts 
it around the end of the round piece of fire-wood, | and he ties it 
tightly to the fire-wood, in this manner: After he has tied 
it on with a || rope, he heats it by the —_(O fire of the house. 
Now | he heats it all round until it is burnt black. Then he takes 
tallow and | rubs it on it while it is still warm. When it is cov-

it | cools off quickly. Now he wants it to become brittle and || to 
retain its hoop shape and to not spring back again. | Therefore 
the tallow is put on. When it gets cool, he | takes the hoop for the 
mouth of the scraping-net for flat sea-eggs, and he takes the | drill

drill-holes. It passes through | two meshes. As soon as 
this is done, he takes a small | hemlock- tree two fathoms
