382 ETHNOLOGY OF THE KWAKIUTL [DTH. ANN, 35 
men, and the numaym is not invited to it. | Only four or six friends of 
the || one who caught the codfish eat of the bull-head, for that is its 
name | when it is eaten; and the one who inyites his friends says, | 
“We will eat bull-head to-morrow.” Thus he says. And the reason 
why its name is | ‘“bull-head”’ is that the stomach of ‘ the-one-who- 
pulls”’ is never full, and also | the stomach of the black cod and of the 
kelp-fish and of the xritldzds. That is its other || name when it has 
been cooked and when it has been caught by the | fisherman; for the 
fisherman does not allow | the guts of the codfish and of the halibut 
to stay in the body over night; for it is said, that, if | his wife should 
not do so, he would never again have a | bite from the halibut or | 
codfish or black cod or g!wdé’qzla and also the t/ot!/op/é and also the 
gwax"gtiwa and | also the gwelek’. There is only one | way of doing 
with these nine kinds when they are first caught by the fisherman. | 
That is all about this. | 
Fresh Codfish (2).—Sometimes the | woman cooks at once these eight 
kinds besides the | halibut, and the eight kinds of fishes are eaten 
fresh | when the tribes are really hungry; and they also do || so 
when they get rotten. The only difference when they are | fresh is, 
that the woman cuts the codfish right away, | Both sides of the 
neck of the codfish are cut, and then around | the back of the head;
