Excerpt from Kickapoo Tales, Vol. 9
The following tales were collected by the late Dr. William Jones in 1903. It is possible that some of them were collected during his visit at the Carlisle Indian School in February; but it is clear that some were collected from James Down, a Kickapoo lad from that school, in New York in May and June.1 A letter, dated April i5th 1913, from Superintendent Friedman to me gives the name of the Kickapoo lad, though he states the records do not show for what purpose the latter was in New York. A slip of paper inside one of the note books containing the Kickapoo tales gives a list of the Kickapoo and Sauk and Fox (of Oklahoma: hence presumably really Sauk) children at the school when Dr. Jones visited the institution. This fact coupled with the passages in Rideout slife, makes it not quite certain where the material was gathered. It may be noted that the Kickapoo here presented is of the so-called Mexican band.
Dr. Jones left a complete translation of "Turtle on the war-path", p.28 ff. and of "Harlots" as far as the 5 th paragraph, p.68. The translations otherwise are my own, though I gladly acknowledge assistance from Leo Walker, a Sauk of Oklahoma; Joe Murdoch, Emma Kickapoo Williams, both Mexican Kickapoos of Oklahoma; and a few others. Some notes on the texts by Dr. Jones giving linguistic and ethnological information have been likewise utilized.
