he goes into his fishing- | canoe and paddles to the place where 
he left his fishing-line; and | when he reaches the round cedar- 
wood float at the end, he takes it |] and puts it into his small canoe, 
and he hauls in his | fishing-line. Then he takes off the flounders, 
and black-edged(?)flounders | which hang on the hooks; and as soon 
as he has them all off, he takes | clean clams and baits his fishing- 
line; and | after he has baited it, he takes his paddle and paddles; || 
and when his small canoe starts, then the line runs out into the 
water. | When it is all in, he puts the | stone anchor into the water; 
and when it touches the bottom, he takes the round cedar- | float at 
the end and throws it into the water. Then he goes home. He picks 
up some | dry driftwood. When he thinks he has enough to steam || 
the flounder standing on edge, he goes home | to his house. When it is 
high water he throws out the | driftwood on the beach of his house.

Then she takes the harpoon, || which is made of a thin rod of red pine. 
Sometimes it is three fathoms long. | Two points of tough wood are
