James Owen Dorsey writes, "Gazaⁿ-nañge needed a blanket in very cold weather. Mr. Hyatt, a trader, required a pledge, and the pipe was given for that purpose. The pipe was to be redeemed in four years: but Mr. Hyatt took it away when he left. At length, Gazaⁿ-nañge wished to pay five dollars and get the pipe back." Eighth text entered, March 2006. -jtm
