A Curiout Indian Custom.
Many strange Indian tribes live
around" Hudson bay. The Creek and
Nascoppie Indians are among these
tribes who have a peculiar custom in
regard to their dead. As soon as one
of their number is dead the surviv
ing relatives place the dead one in a
box which they beg from the Hud
eon Bav company. The size is of no
account. In this box are placed,
with a loaded eun, a powdcrhorn, a
tobacco pouch, a flint stone for
striking ffre, the snowshoes for trav
el and an ax.
This box is then carried to the
ton of the nearest hill and set there
with stones upon the top of it. For
ten days it is left undisturbed, and
then the relatives remove the gun
and other valuables,' believing that
by that time the dead one has reach
ed the hajipy hunting grounds and
has no further use for them. ;f .
