NARRATIVES.

p. 164

The following narratives were collected in the course of this investigation and are offered as a contribution to Dakota folklore. About the only data so far published under this head are to be found in the following fragmentary collections: S. R. Riggs, Dakota Grammar, Texts, and Ethnography, ¹ Clark Wissler, Some Dakota Myths, ² and the author's paper on Sioux Games. ³ Practically none of these duplicate the narratives offered here, though there are some correspondences as noted in the text.
