“people must die, so that their friends who are left alive may always remember them.””
— George Bird Grinnell
“The women were the smartest. They knew the most. They were the first to make piskuns, and to know how to tan hides and to make moccasins. At that time men wore moccasins made from the shank of the buffalo's leg, and robes made of wolfskin. This was all their clothing.””
— George Bird Grinnell
