Afterwards they begin to wait until they are ready to make the chief. Then for the new comers they all make ceremonies; they entertain them in the dance. They come to the village; they danced performing the welcoming ceremony.

Then thither in two days' time they fetch his flag-pole. When it is ready they raise it; then one of the chiefs he puts and he places on him (the new chief) his medal and then they clothe him in new clothes. Then one chief proclaims this chief whom they had made: "This is our chief: you must do whatever you can to please him and you must obey him: he, however, shall do what is in accordance with the will of his people." This is what he must do; viz., the chief must regulate all quarrels. He must prevent quarrels; in wars he must save his people; even his life for these (he must risk).

Again they begin to go to the hall, so as to assemble. Then the chief beats the drum and proclaims him chief; a chief's wife proclaims the new chief and they dance.

Then on the morrow they choose his captains, seven (in number); these, as many as there are, are to be care-takers; they choose them just as they choose the chief. The one who dances there he names them; he gives them their medals. More severe (are their duties) than the chief's. Then this new chief greets them and shows them what must be their work; so then they prepare; they raise the flag-pole. This is the flag-pole of their chief; these captains stand around it; also they hold brooms, so that whenever there is anything evil here, they shall sweep it away; by cleansing they must clean it (away). This then means that they must take good care as long as their life lasts; also that they must risk (their life). They must risk their blood for those whom they are to care for; they
