"Direttamente dopo la sua morte, tutti gli indiani si avvicinò a lui specialmente la donna abbiamo chiamato ' vecchia madre." Lei ha preso la testa dell'animale nelle sue mani, diedero dei colpetti leggeri e ripetutamente la baciò e ha chiesto perdono mille volte, assicurando l'Orso morto che non era gli Indiani che avevano ucciso, ma che un inglese era stato colpevole di tale male andando.

. The animals of the world. Brehm's life of animals;. Mammals. THE BEAR FAMILY-BLACK BEAR. 253 abundant, relates how his hosts behaved in the presence of a Bear he had just killed. "Directly after his death, all the Indians approached him, especially the woman we called ' Old Mother.' She took the animal's head into her hands, patted and repeatedly kissed it and asked forgiveness a thousand times, assuring the dead Bear that it was not the Indians who had killed him, but that an Englishman had been guilty of that evil deed. This ceremony did not last very long, for soon the skinning and dividing of the meat began. Each person in the party took his burden of skin, meat or fat and we started for home. As soon as we arrived, the head of the Bear was adorned with silver bracelets and all the gaudy ornaments the family possessed.

The hut was cleaned and swept, the head of the Bear was put on a high place and covered with a new.handkerchief which had never been used.
