249 object of awe and veneration. They call it " the crest of the ■world," and think that Wacondah, or the master of life, as they designate the Supreme Being, has his residence among these aerial heights. The tribes on the eastern prairies call them the mountains of the setting sun. Some of them place the "happy hunting-grounds," their ideal paradise, among the recesses of these mountains ; but say that they are invisible to living men. Here also is the " Land of Souls," in which are the " tow...ns of the free and generous spirits," where those who have pleased the master of life while living, enjoy after death all manner of de- lights. Wonders are told of these mountains by the distant tribes, whose warriors or hunters have ever wandered in their neighbor- hood. It is thought by some that, after death, they will have to travel to these mountains and ascend one of their highest and most rugged peaks, among rocks and snows and tumbling tor- rents. After many moons of painful toil they will reach the summit, from whence they will have a view over the land of souls.
