NOTES. 
108, 1. wahuta™¢i". See Notes on “Ictinike and the Deserted Children.” Here it 
may be the bow, as the Orphan calls it ma™, an arrow. See the next version. The 
sword is the only other word in this version, which seems of foreign origin. 
109, 6. ¢e¢anke-i, probably intended for ¢e¢anka éé ha, these are they. 
109, 11. cinuda® ta®, ama, 7. e., cinuda™ ama ta®, ‘‘the other dog that is standing.” 
109, 13. ga"ega"té-ctéwa*ji, from ga™ega*té, a slight while, diminutive of ga"te, a 
while; and ctéwa®ji (negative of ctéwa"™) not even. The dogs had gone not even a 
little while; they returned almost immediately: ‘they had gone no time.” 
109, 15. I™‘é-¢acije, peculiar to this version. Joseph La Iléche gives Ni-uha-man¢i" 
instead of it; but the Ponka chiefs say that these names belong to different myths. 
109, 18. gab¢ijé-qti ¢e¢a-biama. He knocked it down very suddenly, sending the 
splinters flying in all directions.
