Excerpt from Indian Folk Tales
There was once an old woman who was very poor. All her children were dead and she had but one grandchild, a young boy. These two dwelt apart from the rest of the tribe, and, as they had almost nothing of their own, they lived upon the scraps and leavings of others. Sometimes mocking tongues would jibe at them, saying:
"Here are those whose moccasins and robes are the rags which we have thrown away."
At these words the eyes of Katit, the boy, would flash with rage, but his grandmother would droop her head in silence.
One day the tribe moved to another and a better place where there was much game, and Katit and his grandmother followed the trail far in the rear.
"What is that?' asked the old woman, pointing to something which was lying among the bushes on one side of the trail.
