It consisted chiefly in gifts to the bride, Multoona.

The girl was fantastically dressed, with ornaments of shells and feathers, and she followed the young prince demurely.

After the ceremony of the bridal gifts came the Fire-fly dance, in which light-torches gleamed out in vanishing spirals here and there, and over all the plain.
Then followed the _Tamanous_ or Spirit dance, in which a peculiar kind of frenzy is excited, as has been described.

The excitement was somewhat less than usual this night, on account of the great orgies which were expected to follow.
The third and great night of the Potlatch came.

It was the night of the full October moon.
