33
0:01:26,550 --> 0:01:29,190
wolf gave him a favorable answer and
34
0:01:29,190 --> 0:01:31,950
he was forthwith changed into a wolf
35
0:01:32,490 --> 0:01:34,710
well that will do said manzo but
36
0:01:34,710 --> 0:01:36,990
he said looking at his tail could
37
0:01:36,990 --> 0:01:38,850
you oblige me by making my tail
38
0:01:38,850 --> 0:01:41,550
a little longer and more bushy just
39
0:01:41,550 --> 0:01:44,400
a little more bushy certainly said the
40
0:01:44,400 --> 0:01:46,950
old wolf and he straight away gave
41
0:01:46,950 --> 0:01:49,800
Manabozho such a length and spread of
42
0:01:49,800 --> 0:01:52,740
tail that it was continually getting between
43
0:01:52,740 --> 0:01:55,170
his legs and it was so heavy
44
0:01:55,170 --> 0:01:57,300
that it was as much as he
45
0:01:57,300 --> 0:01:59,370
could do to carry it but having
46
0:01:59,400 --> 0:02:02,010
asked for it he was ashamed to
47
0:02:02,010 --> 0:02:05,520
say another word and they all started
48
0:02:05,520 --> 0:02:08,580
off in company dashing up the ravine
49
0:02:09,330 --> 0:02:11,790
after getting into the woods for some
50
0:02:11,790 --> 0:02:14,070
distance they ran across a track of
51
0:02:14,070 --> 0:02:16,440
moose the young ones scampered off in
52
0:02:16,440 --> 0:02:19,470

53
0:02:19,470 --> 0:02:21,570

55
0:02:24,270 --> 0:02:26,550
conversation who do you think is the
56
0:02:26,550 --> 0:02:28,860

57
0:02:28,860 --> 0:02:31,110

58
0:02:31,110 --> 0:02:33,660

the spot where the boys had started
67
0:02:51,390 --> 0:02:53,880
the chase one had dropped what seemed
68
0:02:53,880 --> 0:02:55,680
to be a small medicine-sack
69
0:02:56,100 --> 0:02:58,170
