This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1914 Excerpt: ... of root tied with a shred of sinew. Two packages cedar twigs. Nineteen packages herbs and roots. Eight packages herb mixture. Two loose pieces green soft stone, also two cloth packages of similar stones showing traces of scraping. The greenish powder in the first woven sack is evidently made from this stone, which seems to be a sort of indurated clay, stained green, perhaps, with copper salts.

Contents.--When the outside cover was removed, two packages were disclosed. One of old red calico tied with strips of otter skin, enclosed a head band of buffalo hide, with the long hair well preserved. The second package is wrapped in cotton sheeting. It contains: Mink skin, flesh side painted yellow.

Small brass belI. Miniature belt of black imitation wampum and green glass beads, trimmed with green and purple ribbon. Square of purple cotton cloth containing two cloth packets of medicine, some bits of root, a small soft black stone, a piece of fungus tinder a...
