the Medicine Man, is the same, with fringe on the shoulders 

 but not across the back; and may have on the trousers, 

 down the outer seam, from the knee to the bottom, a 

 fringe which begins at a quarter-inch deep, and widens 

 gradually till it ends an inch deep at the bottom. 



On great occasions, much regaha and gorgeous Indian 

 costumes are worn, but the badges are the same. 



TITLES OF NOBLES 



When a Brave has won 24 honors in either Lodge, accord- 

 ing to the Standard of Honors, he may claim the title of 

 Sagamore* 



He that has won 24 grand honors becomes a Grand Saga- 

 more. 



He that has won 48 honors becomes a Sachem. 



He that has won 48 grand honors becomes a Grand 

 Sachem. 



All Sachems and Sagamores sit in the Council of their 

 Tribe without election, and by right of their honors. But 

 the Lodges do not mingle; that is, a member of the Little 

 Lodge cannot sit by right in a Council of the Big Lodge.
