We didn't get many pinon nuts because we had no horses. That same day we left the Blue Range and went home, traveling light and fast. My father gave orders for one cowhide to be placed in the water to soak, in order that horseshoes might be made from it. I "Tomorrow we will shoe the horses. The next day we will go after those who took our horses from us. Put up a sweat lodge and kill one cow. 2 We'll eat the meat while we take our baths," he said. While they were at the sweat bath, my father spoke: "I'm going after the ones who stole our horses in two days.

The war party had been gone six days when two of them arrived home, sent ahead to tell us the rest were safe. That is how we knew. They brought no horses back with them because the Yavapai only had a few at the camp, though they got two of the horses stolen from us. All the rest had been driven off to a big mountain which could be seen from the Yavapai camp. Two youths from the war party were sent on ahead to tell us how they had succeeded and that we had gotten back two of the horses. " The rest of the men were one day behind them and the youths said they would be in in two more days.

The cattle herd ahead of you has been taken down to White River for me; the herd you were bringing home I'm going to take to my home also. You have done well for me and brought lots of cattle from the warpath. You can just sit there and tell your people. I want you to tell them about me. " So he killed one, and the one who was left, the one who still sat there, said, "If any of you have some mescal, I wish you would give it to me. I want it. Then I will eat it up. Maybe that will bring me home to tell my people about you.
