For it is well to remark here that the Indians had many stipcrsiitioiis about such things. of which it has been much trouble to diszibuse them. If they had roasted an Eel. they also be- lieved that this would prevent lhem from catching one another Ili't1F'. Thry had in old times many beliefs of this kind, which we have disabuserl them. . a - Their xiraaltli was in proportion to their Dogs. and as a testimony to a friend of the esteem in which they hold him. they save him that Dog to cat which they valued the most. Tlicy say that it is very good eating. They still do this, and the Frencli eat it when they their feasts, of Which thejftcli izrcatlstorles. They like it. better than mutton.

For it the animal perceives him or his smell, the Moose takes to flight and scorns the Dogs, unless the hunter gives it. an arrow-shot. Being injured, it has difficulty in saving itself from the Dogs, which follow it incessantly, as does also the In- dian, who overtakes it and shoots again. But sometimes the Dogs. which have seized the ears or the muz- zle, drag it to earth before the Indian has come up. They are not inclined to abandon it, for very often they have had nothing to eat for seven or eight days. The Indian arrives, completes the kill, splits open the belly, and gives all the entrails to his Dogs. which have a great junket. It is this which makes the Dogs keen in the chase. As for the winter, when it. has rained upon the snow, whit-li can thus carry the Dogs, thcy made use of them as I have already de- scribed. because they have not at that time so much trouble to catch the Moose.
