of those who are to eat the boiled whole flounders; and | immedi- 
ately those who are to eat the flounders begin to eat, taking them up 
in the hands. | Some Indians call this “flounder-eating.’’ They 
suck | the bones and the head and the gills while they are eating the || 
meat. When they have eaten it all, then water is given to them to | 
rinse their mouth, and they drink. This is all about | one manner 
(of cooking flounder). | 
Flounder eaten with Spoons.—The | cutting of the flounder is the 
same as the cutting of the whole boiled flounder, || the only difference 
being that there are no broken cedar-sticks, for | it is just put imto 
the water when it begins to boil. When it has been | boiling a little 
while, it is stirred so that it breaks; and when | the meat comes off 
from the bones, it is done. Then | the flounder-cooking kettle is 
taken off the fire, and || a little oil is taken and poured into it. Then | 
the woman takes the spoons and distributes them among those who 
are to eat | the boiled flounder. The woman takes dishes and a | large 
spoon, and puts the dishes down by the side of the | flounder-cook- 
ing kettle; and she takes the large spoon and || dips the boiled floun- 
der out of the kettle, | and puts into the flounder-dish all the liquid 
and the meat. The dishes are half full of it. | Then it is placed in 
front of the flounder-eaters, who immediately | eat the flounder.
