was seated on the other side of the room,

went to the door, and asked him what he

say how do you do, no more." 
Their meeting and parting salutations are 
strictly observed. I was taken to task sever- 
al times by headmen for leaving them with- 
out observing the Ippeoway and Mogmdawa 
(parting salutation.) When very great 
friends meet they rub each other's arms with 
the hand several times, and afterward shake 
hands a long time. 
There is quite as much etiquette among 
them as there is among us, but it is of a 
different kind ; and by the observance of 
their rules, so tar as it can be done in con- 
science, one may get along with, and among 
them, very well. They are not a dangerous 
people to dwell among if proper care is 
taken. 
They will beg and cheat one out of all he 
has if they can, and, if a good opportunity 
serves for escape, they will steal his goods ; 
but there is no danger of being robbed, or in- 
jured in person if proper precaution be taken.
