 Openly the wife showed such out ward signs of affection for Henry that the chiefs jealousy was arous- cd and he decided to start for home immediately. After getting short distance beyond Martin 8 roadhouse, the bride asked permis sion to return to the roadhouse, saving that she wished to get some things there. Henry was stationed at the roadhouse with a fast dog team, ready to take her to the hills the minute she returned, but there was nothing doing in that line, for the chief said, Nay, nay, we will leave the things behind and get them next year." Baffled for the time, the bride went along with her husband, but sent word back to Hon ry, by q stage driver, that she would shake the old fellow and re tGrn within a week.

Vol colt, the court reporter. Ed. tells the story with such great detail that there is little chance for doubt as to it's authenticity. It relates to the wife of the chief of the Gokona Indians, and "Chief" Henry, the mighty hunter of the Salchaket tribe.
 In his youth, it appears from MT. Wolcott's tale, the chief of the Co., Rona tribe took unto his hearth a fair bride, the belle of the potlatch. For years the chief reigned over his people wisely. and at all times was ably assisted by his good spouse INOL lOllS dSOJ uoMS'OiS AS u~NA that it was proper and fitting that he should have a fairer and more comedy lass to share his lot, and he began to look about for a suitable candidate.
 A maiden was finally found who suited the requirements in every de tail, and he immediately informed her that she was "it," Flattered by the offer to become the social leader of the Gokona four hundred, the maid allowed herself to he led away by the chief and became his lawfully welded wife.
 Everything went along nicely and the chiefs cup of happiness was filled to overflOwing. To show off his new youthful bride, the chief made a trip to Salchaket to pay his respects to his neighbors, and now
