all been poured off, he takes a small dish and | places it by the side 
of the kettle in which the tail-blubbér has been cooked. | He takes 
hold of the kettle on each side and pours the contents | into a small 
dish. .The people eat it while it is still || hot; and when they have 
eaten enough, they put away the rest. | As soon as the owner wants

the water boils, | he takes the kettle off the fire, and he takes the 
boiled | whale-tail and puts it im; and || when he thinks that it is 
warm enough, he takes it out and eats it, | for it is tender while it is 
warm. Not many tribes are invited | to this food, for only the 
owner | eats the boiled whale-tail, | but they do not stretch the 
blubber of the dorsal fin when they boil it. || This is cut in the same 
way as the tail-blubber of the whale is cut, | and after a short time 
it is put into boiling water. | When it is all in, the kettle is taken off 
the fire] and the liquid is poured out. Then the blubber| of the dorsal 
fin of the whale shrivels up. When it is done, the (woman) 
puts it || imto a small dish. She does not eat this at once, for, |

when it is cold: therefore she cooks much of it at the same time. | 
When she has eaten enough of the fin-blubber, | she puts it away;
