Abstract

"Chief Yo-yonen complained of being tired and wanting to smoke. They sat down and struck their last match in lighting their smokes. All efforts at building a fire had been futil, no wood sufficiently dry for kindling, and indeed their matches were nearly all ruined by the pouring rain. After smoking and a brief rest the hunters proceeded on their way but could make but slow progress. The chief began to lag and complained that he could go but little further. Urged by his companions he continued walking for a time and finally said: I am all in. You go on and leave me. His companions then got under either arm and helped him for some time, their progress growing slower and slower."
