374 THE PIMA INDIANS fETH.ANN.2G 



our meu heard of this from a ine.ssenger the^' spraiifj upon the enemy. 

 Wc killed one who .slipped upon the gra.ss and fell down hill and 

 another who .stumbled upon a branch. We cleaned up everything 

 about the Apache camp. Animals and birds alone remained to prey 

 upon the dead. 



I turned back and my trail was downward. 1 reached home after 

 slackening .speed four times. When at the first drinking place I .sent 

 four of my sons to give notice of our approach. They told the old 

 men and the old women at the villages and they rose and cleaned their 

 face.s and brushed theii- liair smooth. Then I came bringing the evi- 

 dences of my victory. My land i-ejoiced with me and the mountain 

 donned its headdress, the trees took on gladness. We notified our 

 relatives to the east, west, and south, that we might rejoice together. 



You may think this over, my relatives. The taking of life brings 

 serious thoughts of the waste; the celebration of victory may become 

 unpleasantly riotous.
