LEGENDS OF MALHEUR CAVE in mortaf fear of the water devil, !
,
Fail De Laaey Writes The Urefot Daily
Journal la Which he Displays bls
Wonderful Imagination.
Religious Servit?
The Indians feared the very neigh­
borhood of the place and shunned
it. The death of a number of the
tribe was laid to this monster and
his special province seemed to be
carrying away, and feasting upon
children.
Another legend is that it was the
former abode of all of the animals
of the world: that nt one time
all the animals now upon the earth
were confined to this cave. Mort
of the Indians of ti e Pacific Nortlt-
west looked upon the coyote as a
god and not as an animal, The
grey wolf they- looked upon as
the greatestof all gods.
