LEGENDS 0F GLOOSCAP 273

“How have you fared?” Glooscap then asked.

Then they told him about their adventures, but the Chief knew all this, because he alone had helped them in all their trials.

As they were leaving, Glooscap said to the Megumoowesoo :

“If ever you are in trouble, you have but to think of me, and I will send assistance to you.”

The two men and the bride started home— ward; and when they reached the deep forest, they separated. The young man and the bride Went to their home, to begin their daily life to- gether, and the Megumoowesoo departed to lead that higher life to which Glooscap had ap- pointed him.
