MALLERY. | THE SUPERNATURAL. 463 
Fig. 641,—Crazy-Horse says his prayers and goes on 
the war-path. Cloud-Shield’s Winter Count, 1844~45, 
The waved lines are used again for crazy. “Says 
his prayers,” which are the words of the interpreter, 
would be more properly rendered by referring to the 
ceremonies of organizing a war party. 
Fig. 642.—Crazy-Horse’s band left the Spotted- 
Tail agency (at Camp Sheridan, Nebraska) and went 
north, after Crazy-Horse was killed at Fort Robinson, 
Nebraska. Cloud-Shield’s Winter Count, 1877—78. 
Hoofprints and lodge-pole tracks run northward 
from the house, which represents the agency. That 
the horse is “crazy” is shown by the waved or spiral 
lines on his body, running from his nose, hoof, and 
forehead. The band is named from its deceased 
chief, and is designated by his personal device, a dis- 
tinct and unusual departure among Indians tending 
towards the evolution of band or party emblems un- 
connected with the gentile system. 
FG. 642. 
Fig. 643.—Medicine. Red-Cloud’s Census. The 
full rendering should be medicine-man or shaman. 
The waving lines above the head again signify mystic 
or sacred, and are made in gesture in a similar man- — 
ner as that before described, with some differenti- 
ation, for prayer or incantation. The shut or half- 
closed eye may be noted.
