THE HORNED STURGEON TRANSCRIBED BY WILLIAM JONESRETRANSCRIBED BY JEREMY KINGSBURY [1] Once upon a time, some people got in their canoes to look for sturgeon; they had spears; and they went out on the lake. When they looked down into the water, sometimes they saw a sturgeon. Then they speared the sturgeon. Once, one guy was heard saying: “Oo, look at how this sturgeon looks! He has horns like a moose, he has horns like him. [2] So they all came in their canoes to see how he looked. “It really does have horns!” they said. “So it’s a sacred sturgeon!” [3] So then they smoked, and put tobacco on the water. After they smoked they went their separate ways.[4] Then another canoe of people went out, and again they saw him. Then, taking his spear, the man speared the sturgeon. [5] After he brought it up from the water, he saw a bald eagle clinging to the sturgeon’s head. Then all the people had a big laugh.
