Footnote 1:
Paper read at the Third Annual Meeting, Cambridge, Mass., Dec. 29,
1892.
Footnote 2:
In Indian usage the mother is spoken of before the father.
Footnote 3:
There may be an allusion to the name in this, for O-ne-tah (the
Hemlock) means “Greens on a stick,” and O-neh-tah (the Pine) means
“Porcupines clinging to a stick.”
Footnote 4:
Paper read before the American Folk-Lore Society, Montreal Branch,
1893.
Footnote 5:
A buckskin rope in those days.
Footnote 6:
Five inches in circumference.
Footnote 7:
The old Indian comb; it was made of wild oats, long grasses like
thistles, sharp and black at the end. The Indians work these sharp
ends through wool or cotton and cut off the sharp points, leaving the
grass about two inches long, like bristles; then they take a piece of
animal bladder, because it is soft, and tie the bundle of cloth
together for a handle. This old mode of making a comb has gone; with
the Indian’s present opportunity of buying combs, such as we use, it
is an impossibility, almost, to procure a specimen of these old combs.
