First of all, however, he<br \/>set about building a canoe for himself. The first one he made split,<br \/>and he was obliged to throw it away. The second also split, notwithstanding<br \/>the fact that he had made it stouter than the other. Another and<br \/>another he built, making each one stronger than the last, but every<br \/>attempt ended in failure, and at last, exceedingly vexed at this<br \/>unskillful, he was on the point of giving the task up. He would<br \/>have done so, indeed, but for the intervention of Greatest Fool.<br \/>Hitherto Master- Carpenter had been trying to form two canoes from<br \/>one log by means of wedges. Greatest Fool stood watching him for<br \/>a time, amused at his clumsiness, and finally showed him that he<br \/>ought to use bent wedges. And though he was perhaps the last person<br \/>from whom Master-Carpenter might expect to learn anything, the unsuccessful<br \/>builder of canoes adopted the suggestion, with the happiest results.<br \/>When at length he was satisfied that he had made a good canoe he<br \/>let it down into the water, and sail off in search of South East.<\/p><p>By and by he floated right down to his enemy&#039;s abode, and when<br \/>he judged himself to be above it he rose in the canoe and flung<br \/>out a challenge. There was no reply. Again he called, and this time<br \/>a rapid current began to float past him, bearing on its surface<br \/>a quantity of seaweed. The shrewd Master- Carpenter fancied he saw<br \/>the matted hair of his enemy floating among the seaweed. He seized<br \/>hold of it, and after it came South-East. The latter in a great<br \/>passion began to call on his nephews to help him. The first to be<br \/>summoned was Red-storm-cloud. Immediately a deep red suffused the<br \/>sky. Then the stormy tints died away, and the wind rose with a harsh murmur.<\/p><p>When this wind had reached its full strength another was summoned,<br \/>Taker-off-of-the-tree-tops. The blast increased to a hurricane,<br \/>and the tree-tops were blown off and carried away and fell thickly<br \/>about the canoe, where Master-Carpenter was making use of his magic<br \/>arts to protect himself. Again another wind was called up, Pebble-rattler,<br \/>who set the stones and sand flying about as he shrieked in answer<br \/>to the summons.<\/p><p>Maker-of-the-thick-sea-mist came next, the spirit of fog which<br \/>strikes terror into the hearts of those at sea, and he was followed<br \/>by a numerous band of other nephews, each more to be dreaded than<br \/>the last. Finally Tidal-wave came and covered Master-Carpenter with<br \/>water, so that he was obliged to give in. Relinquishing his hold<br \/>on South-East, he managed to struggle to the shore. It was said<br \/>by some that South-East died, but the shamans, who ought to know,<br \/>say that he returned to his own place.<\/p><p>South-East&#039;s mother was named Tomorrow, and the Indians say that<br \/>if they utter that word they will have bad weather, for South-East<br \/>does not like to hear his mother&#039;s name used by any one else.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Haida-Tlingit-Tsimshian Mythology Wiki The Haida are a Native American people of the west coast of Canada and the northern United States, as \u2026 <\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":4275,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-21564","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/21564","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21564"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/21564\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21593,"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/21564\/revisions\/21593"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4275"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21564"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
