Note 2 — Wars between the people of Ninstints and the people of Skidegate
Reading edition
There was no way to climb up to the fort. They then laid a long pole up the side of it. They used that to climb up on. Presently the Skidegate people came in a crowd to the bottom of it. When they were ready to go up some one shouted down from it: “Do not kill me. I belong to the Cumshewa-town people.2 I am here with them only for a short time.” They called to him then to come down. But he did not believe them and did not go down.
