A man named Turtle-no-head was suspended from a post in a booth, and dancing around it. Turtle-no-head s hands were behind him, and he strained at the rope as he danced. Women were crying, " A -la-la-la-la-la! " Old men were calling 64 GOODBIRD THE INDIAN out, " Good; Turtle-no-head is a man. One should be willing to suffer to find his god ; then he will strike many enemies and win honors!];" I was much stirred by what I saw, and by the old men s words. " Father, " I said, " when I get big, I a...m going to suffer and seek a vision, like Turtle-no-head 1 " " Good! " said my father, laughing. At Independence, I thought of this vow made years before. One day, I said to my father, " I want you to suspend me from the high bank, over the Missouri. " When evening came, my father stripped me to my clout and moccasins, and helped me paint my body with white clay. He called a man named Crow, and they took me to the bank, over the Missouri. My father fastened me to the rope, and I swung myself over the bank, hanging with my weight upon the rope.
