The Blackfeet believe that the Sun made the earth—that he is the creator. One of the names by which they call the Sun is Napi—Old Man. This is how they tell of the creation: "It is better she should go alone," says Dr. Bland. "He would be quite unequal to two; and besides,—pardon me,—from what he has said to me I fear there were unpleasant passages between you and him.".

"If there is one thing I adore, it is a secret chamber, or a closet in a house, or a ghost." "There, don't cry, and you shall have it all your own way," he says, with a sigh. "To-morrow we will decide what is to be done." "We needn't risk it. And it is no harm, darling, because you will soon be my wife, and then I shall give you everything. When the dress comes I'll send it up to you by my man, and you must manage the rest."
