  • child: Yellow-Calf (Tale 47 girl) (The passage identifies her parents collectively, but does not distinguish or name them; this attribution to her mother is uncertain.) “Young-Eagle lay down by the side of Yellow-Calf, and the next morning, when the parents arose to prepare the meal, they went to the girl and found a young man lying by her. The old people, knowing that Yellow-Calf had been away for some time, thought, of course, that she had got married, and had brought her husband home.”
