Whether they are true I do not know. I was told that the story took place at the foot of Mount Tom. g . The Paiutes do not believe in telling stories during the warm summer months because they say it will bring bad luck to the family. This story was told to me by my great, great grand- mother many years ago, and it stands out clearly in' my mind just the way she told it. I believe she. told me this story to try to show me just what would happen if I was mean. NCE an old lady lived at the foot of the mountains with her four children. It was a very nice family and they got along very well. YVhen the children were bad, she punished them so they wouldn't forget and do it again. On a certain night, after they had finished their supper, two of the girls started to quarrel over some Indian candv. Their mother told them to stop, but they wouldn't listen to her. So for punishment she put the youngest girl to bed and the oldest one outdoors until she could learn to be good. The mother said, Maybe Zun-nu-zun-nee Can Indian name for coyotej will get you and teach you to be good and do as you are told. She cried and cried, but her mother wouldn't let her in. Finally old Zun-nu-zun-nee heard her crving. He looked until he found her. He asked her what she was doing and whether or not her mother was mean to her. She told him her mother was and wouldn't give her any candy. So he told her to come with him to his home for awhile. They started to walk away. They hadn't gone very far when Zun-nu-zun-nee stopped her and told her he had a nice little cap that she could wear. He took it out and put it on her and pressed it down real snug. And they continued to walk, only a little faster. Then he stopped her and pulled her cap off, and not only the cap but her scalp also. He ran away, leaving her there on the ground. Meanwhile the mother went out to look for her daughter as it was bed- time, but she couldn't find her. She put the others to bed and went out with a great big knife. She looked and looked, but all in vain. Finally she saw a great big fire. She crept up and watched the beings. She knew what they Were doing so she waited until they had finished their dance and had gone to bed. The tire finally burned out, and the camp was very quiet. She crept upon the sleeping Zun-nu-zun-nees and began cutting their heads off one by one. It happened that the smallest one was not yet asleep, and when he sawchis mates being slaughtered, he jumped up and ran as fast as he could. She tried to grab him, but he was too fast. After she had killed the sleeping Zun-nu-zun-nees, she went out and got her daughter s scalp which was put on a pole above the fire. And then she had tolook for her daughter. She found her almost dead under a tree. Her mother put her scalp on her, and she started to breathe freely. Then She remembered what had happened and began crying. She told her mother she would never be mean again, and her mother forgave her. 1 and keiphilliiciirfzjitiiynthieicilisielilicisihis is one reason Why Coyotes are afraid of people -FHz'y- 3 Y
