THE OLD-AGE-DOG WHO RESCUED THE CHIEF'S SON. 153 
he was dead the Trickster people left the camp and left their dog there; 
how the dog roused him from death; how the dog would be his brother, 
and what times they had while on the way home. 
Young-Man-Chief then told his people that he wanted to send out 
a War-party against the people who had scorched him to death, for the 
Old-Age-Dog on their arrival home had told him to send out a war- 
party against these people. The following night they formed a big 
war-party to go on this expedition, and on the next morning they started 
out. ‘When Young-Man-Chief was telling of his life while among the 
Tricksters, the father of the woman who had been killed was among 
the crowd and heard what Young-Man-Chief had said about his life, 
and about how Young-Man-Chief had been put to death. They set out 
en the journey to look for the Tricksters, and they were on the way 
about six or seven days, and the seventh day they all stopped. Then 
Young-Man-Chief made his offering of smoke and told his men that 
he and his brother, the Old-Age-Dog, would go out spying for the 
Tricksters, for they had already been spying. So they set out at once,

they asked him why he had called them together. The Old-Age-Dog 
told them that the Trickster people were mean to them, and in order to 
make them suffer he wanted them to take away all the Trickster-Spies’ 
weapons, chew off all their bow-strings and carry away all their war-

attack these people. All the dogs returned to the camp to destroy 
everything and carry off everything. Then the Old-Age-Dog returned 
where Young-Man-Chief was and told him what he had done, and they 
at once started back to where the other men were. They arrived at 
their camp about midnight, and the war-party started at once for the 
Trickster-Spies. They traveled all that night, until nearly daylight, 
arrived early the next morning and then made their attack. When 
they made their charge, Young-Man-Chief and Old-Age-Dog kept going 
among the Trickster-Spies and killing them and looking for the woman
