Afterwards they begin to wait until they are ready to make the chief. Then for the new comers they all make ceremonies; they entertain them in the dance. They come to the village; they danced performing the welcoming ceremony.
Then thither in two days' time they fetch his flag-pole. When it is ready they raise it; then one of the chiefs he puts and he places on him (the new chief) his medal and then they clothe him in new clothes.

The one who dances there he names them; he gives them their medals. More severe (are their duties) than the chief's.
