516 ETHNOLOGY OF THE KWAKIUTL [WTE. ANN. 85 
As soon as | the seaweed gets cold quickly, the guests who eat it || 
5 take tongs, and red-hot stones are taken | and put into a small 
kettle. Then it | keeps warm for a long time while they are eating 
it. Seaweed is never | boiled in a large kettle, but they use a | small 
10 kettle, for they eat it out of it; and || not once is it put into a dish, | 
for it is not good when it gets cold, and it is only good | when it is 
hot. That is all about this. | 
Salmon-Spawn with Seaweed.—I have | forgotten this. When two 
15 spoonfuls of scattered || dog-salmon spawn are boiled, when they are 
nearly done, | the kettle is taken off from the fire, andthen cold water 
is poured | into it until the kettle is more than half full. | Then 
chopped seaweed is put in and is stirred. | When it is just the right 
20 thickness, the kettle is put back || on the fire. Then it is left to boil 
for a long time; and | it is taken off again, and oil is poured into it. | 
This is eaten with spoons when it is done. | 
Clams with Seaweed.—And also four large (small) | clams are 
25 taken and are opened. Then || the sand is picked off; and when it 
is all off, they are put into the | kettle. When this is done with 
four | large clams, water is poured on, but not very | much water. |
