The other ghosts said to him, "Where did he shoot?"

The wounded ghost said, "He shot me through the head and I have come

apart." Then the other ghosts were wailing on the hillside.

The man decided he would go to the place where the ghosts were

wailing. So when day came, he went there. He found some graves. Into

one of them a wolf had dug, so that the bones could be seen; and there

was a wound in the skull.
