The Stone Goats were the sons of the
Winter demon, malicious brother of the

mythology held place somewhat akin

cold and hunger, was a supreme evil.
Originally. it is believed. the Genon-
swaga were the Winter storms. 1t SO
happened that the Iriquois words for
ice and for stone are the same. In the
course of generations, through the
workings of the same combination OF
psychology and philology which some
times is credited with the creation OF
Santa Claus in the European folk mind,
the demonic Stone Goats arose.
The Stone Coats are pretty well dis
