To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They would have the right to mock you, to point at you, and call " E-e-e, e-e-e, e-e-e !" at you, till you fought them. After that, whether you whipped them or not, there began to be some feeling in your favor again, and they had to stop.
Every boy who came to town from somewhere else, or who moved into a new neighborhood, had to fight the old residents. There was no reason for this, ex- cept that he was a stranger, atfd there appeared to be no other means of making his acquaintance. If he was ...generally whipped he became subject to the local tribe, as the Delawares were to the Iroquois in the last cent- ury ; if he whipped the other boys, then they adopted him into their tribe, and he became a leader among them. When you moved away from a neighborhood you did not lose all your rights in it ; you did not have to fight when you went back to see the boys, or any- thing ; but if one of them met you in your new pre- cincts you might have to try conclusions with him; Digitized by Google MANNERS AND CUSTOMS.
