The story of one who saw an eagle town
Reading edition
[Told by Abraham, of Those-born-at-Qꜝā′dᴀsg̣o, to whom it was related by an old man of Ninstints.]
By and by he went to the end of the town. It occurred to him to go into the woods. Then he did so. Then he thought of climbing a mountain. At once he went thither. Before him eagles wheeled about upon the mountain. Presently he came to a big town.
By and by he started out fishing with a net. Then they told him not to put the whole net into the sea. And, when he fished with them, he let out two meshes. When he got something in it that time, it carried it away. He did not worry about it. Some time after this he descended to his home. Then he again began gambling. At that time he won. At once he paid all his debts.
Originally this story must have been considerably longer.
