Should her husband wish it, she must travel all day with a heavy weight on her back; and at night when they stop, her hands must prepare the food for her family before she retires to rest.
Her work is never done.

She makes the summer and the winter house.

For the former she peels the bark from the trees in the spring; for the latter she sews the deer-skin together.

She tans the skins of which coats, mocassins, and leggins are to be made for the family; she has to scrape it and prepare it while other cares are pressing upon her.

When her child is born, she has no opportunities for rest or quiet.
