To constitute legal marriage, a man must build a house, make his crop & gather it in, then make his hunt & bring home the meat; - putting all this in the possession of his wife, ends the ceremony, and they are married, or, as the indians express it, the woman is bound, & not till then. This information is obtained from Co,tau,lau (Tus,se,lci,ah? Mic,co) an old & Respectable chief descended from Nau,che. He lives near We,o,coof,ke - has accumulated a handsome property - has a fine stock - is a man of much information and great influence among indians of the towns in the neighborhood of this.
