WILB INDIAN LIFE. 



PAWNEE 



HERO STORIES AND FOLK-TALES. 



With Notes on the Origin, Customs and 

 Character of the Pawnee People. 



By GEORQE BIRD GRINNBLL ("YO.") 



Cloth, 417 pages. niustrated. Price $2.00. 



Pawnee customs and beliefs are richly illustrated by the folk-tales 

 and in the copious notes Mr. Grinnell gives an uncommonly spirited ac 

 count of Pawnee life in peace and in war. There is an account of the 

 defense of a Pawnee village by 200 sick men, cripples, old men and 

 squaws, against 600 Sioux warriors, which for sbeer gallantry and in- 

 domitable pluck wiU match almost any thing in military history. The 

 Pawnee warriors were aU away at the time, and the Sioux counted upon 

 an easy victory. But the Pavmee cripples and women actually beat them 

 off after a hard day's fighting, and at last so terrorized them that the 

 bold assailants fled in panic and sustained a heavy loss. Mr. Grinnell 

 also has vso-itten a picturesque and vivacious sketch of one of the last 

 Pawnee buffalo hunts, in which the Indians commonly reverted to prim- 

 itive weapons and usages, often hunting quite naked with no other arms 

 than their bo vvs and arrows. A particularly interesting part of the book 

 is that which treats of the Pawnee doctors or medicine men. The state- 

 ments of Mr. Grinnell show the possession by some of these men of a 

 kind of skiU in sleight-of-hand far beyond that usually attributed to In- 

 dians; some of the facts here described are as puzzling and unaccount- 

 able as those performed by the famous jugglers and fakirs of Hindostan, while one of their 

 tricks is a close parellel to the Bast Indian mango Jeat. . . . Those who desire to leam 

 of the many other wonders done by the Indian doctors must refer to its pages for themselves. 

 As it is certainly one of the best works on Indian life, legend and character that has been 

 written for a long time, it should obtain a wide circulation.— iV. Y. Tribune.
