After a while an unknown man<br \/>\ncame in to them. He came in many times.<\/p>\n<p>Once when he was there, the eldest brother&rsquo;s child began to cry,<br \/>\nand, after all of the brothers had tried to quiet it without success,<br \/>\nhe offered to do so; but when they gave it to him, he secretly sucked<br \/>\nthe child&rsquo;s brains out from one side if its head.<\/p>\n<p>When he handed it back, and they saw what he had done, they seized<br \/>\nwood from the fire and beat the stranger. Then he became angry and<br \/>\nkilled all of the brothers but the youngest, whom he chased about<br \/>\nin the house until morning.<\/p>\n<p>The boy ran out, and after a long run, still pursued by the ogre,<br \/>\ncrossed a high mountain. By and by he crossed another, and saw a<br \/>\nlake beneath it.<\/p>\n<p>Running farther, he came to a log, composed of two trees growing<br \/>\ntogether so as to make a fork, floating upon the water. Going out<br \/>\nupon this, he threw himself into the crotch.<\/p>\n<p> When the pursuer came up, he saw the man&rsquo;s shadow in the lake,<br \/>\nand began jumping at it. Now the man began to sing a North Song,<br \/>\nand the lake at once began to freeze over. When all had frozen over<br \/>\nexcept the small hole where the ogre was jumping, it froze so quickly<br \/>\nafter he had gone in, that he could not get out again when he came<br \/>\nup. Then he saw the man on the tree, and asked him to pull him out;<br \/>\nbut the man only sang louder, so that the ogre was held fast. The<br \/>\nman now began to cut some dry wood to build a fire over the ogre&rsquo;s<br \/>\nhead, telling him at the same time that he was going to save him.<br \/>\nWhen the fire was lighted, the ashes flying up from the monster&rsquo;s<br \/>\nhead turned into mosquitoes. That is how they started.<\/p>","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-21600","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/21600","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=21600"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/21600\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21604,"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/21600\/revisions\/21604"}],"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=21600"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
