Book Description
Excerpt from The Journal of American Folk-Lore, Vol. 22 Not many days after this mysterious disappearance, a little bird settled on the barabara and sang. Although the woman listened attentively, she could not make out what it said. About the same time on the succeeding day the little bird sang again; but this time the woman thought she heard the bird say, Your husband is not dead. He is living with an other woman at the mouth of the river. This same song was repeated on the third morning. Hearing this sad news, the woman felt very bitter towards her husband, and she wept a great deal. She spent the rest of the day in pr sparing food for her children to last them three days, and early next morning set out for the mouth of the river. From the top of every hill she searched diligently for signs of habitation. Towards noon she sighted a but, to which she walked and went in.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Journal of American Folk-Lore, 1909, Vol. 22 With the Eastern group there is almost as slight an agreement in this class of incidents as in the connected cycle. Four incidents only are found to agree, - the hoodwinked dancers, rolling rock, visit to the culture-hero, and bungling host. The latter, at least, is of such very wide distribution that its importance in this case may be regarded as slight. An extensive comparison of the incidents found among the Algonkins here described, with those of other tribes, such as those in the Plains, the Southwest, or the Pacific Coast, has not been made, but a few general statements may be made. The connected cycle of incidents seems to be quite clearly typical of the tribes living near the Great Lakes. We find the greater part of it among the Blackfeet, although lacking among the Arapaho and Cheyenne, showing either the longer residence of these latter tribes in the Plains, or their greater impressibility to the mythology Of the Plains type. A portion appears among the Siouan tribes, where it occurs in the Iowa and Omaha. The other disconnected tales of the culture-hero cannot, however, be regarded as very distinctive. Many of the incidents, such as the bungling host, are of very wide distribution over the whole continent; and others, although not so widely spread, still are found among a large number of tribes outside this area.
