I did not get much sleep, for my leg was hurting me mightily. From time to time he crawled out, and each time he returned saying, ’No snow.’ I had begun to fear that when it came it would be too late. It could not have been long before daybreak when he said, as he crawled in: ’The Great Manitou has sent snow. My brother can sleep in peace.’ An hour later I raised myself up a bit and looked out. It was light now. The air was full of fine snow, and the earth the chief had scraped out was already covered thickly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
