eath of the
Gray Elk whom she loved an' who always called her _Kee-nee-moo-sha_, the
Sweetheart, because it made her laugh.

"'When the Raven was dead, the Squaw-who-has-dreams went to the secret
place an' threw the powder of the whirlwind into the Big-Muddy; an'
after that she distributed her fourteen bundles of talk that were
left among all the Sioux so that everybody could tell how glad he felt
because the Raven was twisted and died. An' for a week there was nothing
but happiness an' big talk among the Sioux; an' _Moh-kwa_, the Bear,
came laughing out of his canyon with the wonder of listening to it;
while the Squaw-who-has-dreams now, when her revenge was done, went with
_When-dee-goo_, the Giant, to his teepee and became his squaw. So now
everything was ended save the Story-that-never-ends.'

"When Sioux Sam gets this far," concluded the Old Cattleman, "he says,
'an' my mother's words at the end were: An' boys who ask too many
questions will die, as did the Raven whose cur'osity was even greater
than his cruelty."
