Man. Third man is Bear-having-great-Powers, and when woman pours out 
meal he tells her her brother must be nearly dead now, as deer has hardly time to 
stop. He tells her to go on to next man, who will aid her. She is to pack on 
her back little child she sees playing, and take him in to old man’s place 
and give corn meal to child. She travels on and sees dug-out on small hill and 
little boy playing. She carries child into lodge and gives it corn meal. Old man 
is Old-scabby-Bull, and he finally agrees to help her, but she must not weep 
when she sees brother. She hears him singing, but he is nearly dead. Old man 
makes small bow and arrow. Next day they go to meet deer. Woman hides 
herself and old man turns into Snowbird. Deer comes, and as he approaches old 
man passes bow-string through his left hand four times and clubs deer with it. 
He helps Young-Boy-Chief off his-antlers and then piles wood over deer and 
sets it on fire. Old man makes Young-Boy-Chief dive in creek, and he comes out 
with four arrows and bow after being called four times. They go on to man’s 
home, where Young-Boy-Chief hunts until people have much meat. Young- 
Boy-Chief and sister travel home fast by means of double-ball and arrows. They 
come to turkeys dancing and laughing because their enemy, Young-Boy-Chief, 
is dead, and he throws ashes on their heads. They see woman in tree crying 
because when Young-Boy-Chief was living she had plenty to eat. She is Red- 
Bird, and Young-Boy-Chief commands tree to bear wild grapes. Bunch of Deer 
tell him they are happy because of Young-Boy-Chief’s death, and he pulls their 
ears out long, then scares them, making their eyes wide open. He commands 
tree to bear fruit for man who is weeping on account of Young-Boy-Chief’s 
death. Man is Opossum, .and tree bears persimmons. When they reach home 
they find only hair and bones of Little-Dog, which sister throws into creek. She 
then calls it and dog comes out happy as can be. Young-Boy-Chief fears some- 
thing else may happen to him, so they pour water on fire and go up with smoke 
and become Eagles. Little-Dog remains as he is.
