The ChiId's Aerial Tomb Among
Some Indian Tribes.


The Indians of various tribes
differ greatly in their mode of dis
posing of the dead; bat there are
scarcely any who do not treat their
departed friends with great respect
and care. In some tribes the
bodies are laid for a time on raised
platforms, out of reach of prowling
beasts, till the work of decay has
left only a skeleton. Then, after a
lapse Of years, a great trench is dug
aud lined with furs, and in this the
skeletons are all gathered and laid
for a final rest, as if men, Invested
of all that is more gross, waiting to
enter in a new life.
In some tribes young infants are
buried in the road leading to the
village, that the spirit Of the child,
unjustly, as it we're, deprived of a
due course Of life, may glide into
some woman passing above, and
make another effort to live the years
allotted to man.
Other tribes again shrink from
committing the delicate child to
the cold earth. The weeping
mother makes "a cradle, and, bind
ing her babe securely in it, goes
into the wood; and selecting some
sapling, binds down the top, and
fastens securely to it the body
of the loved darling; and, then
relaxing the tee, sees her little one
spring heavenward to meet decay
amid the birds and blossoms, in the
pure fresh air that kisses the tree
tops far above the world, and all
that is coarse and cruel and raven
Gus. The thought is almost too
poetical a one to credit to the Indian
mind, but travellers may remember
such an aerial tomb.
