 Do you believe in one God, or do you think there are more Gods that one?
     We old Indians believe in the one Creator, who governs the affairs of the Universe & whose place is in the centre of the sky, directly over-head. 
      In the beginning, we think certain lives were settled upon to go in certain directions and which directions it was determined should be called by the names which in english express the points of the compass. --
      The first line was taken from the direction in which the Sun travels, from east to west; ___ the second from north to south; ___ the third, from west to east; ___ word scratched out and the fourth from south to north: ____And the points at which these lines touched the earth, were to take their names from the direction whence each started: the point, for instance, at which the line beginning from the eastward touched the earth, was to be called east, and so on through the rest.
