CURIOUS WAY OF COURTING:: I
. • - - .
The two thousand Choctaws still, liv
ing in their ancestral homes in Ifftisiss- •
ippi retain in their pristine vigor many
of the usages of their anoestore. Among
these are tho methods employed in con
ducting a courtship and the marriage
ceremony. When a young Choctifir,
of Kemper or Neshoba ,county, 'sees a
maiden NV b o pleases his fancy, he.
watches his opportunity until he findt
her alone. He then approaches within ,
a few yards of her and gently cams a
pebble toward her, so that it mail fall
at_her feet. He may have to tid i \ !phis
tiroor three times before he to
the maiden's attention; If this pebble
thrOwing is agreezble, she noon makes
it Manifest: if otherwise, a sedinful
look nal a dicided ' "ekwah" indicate
Mathis suit is in vain.
When i'marriage is agreed upon/ the
- lovets appoint a time and place .fox ti i e
ceremony. On the marriage dartAtt'e
friends and relatiies of the prosp titre
:couple meet at their respective h rises,
'or villages and thence march w ar d
e a ch other. When they arrive ti the
marriage ground—generally intermedi
ate space betwpen the two villages—
they halt within about a hundred yards
of each other. 'Vie brothers of the
woman then go across to the opposite
party and bring forward the man and
set him down on a blanket spread upon
the marriage ground, The man's sis
ters then do likewiM by going over and
bringing forward the woman and seat
ing her by the side of the man. Some
times, to fninish a little merriment' fo
the occasion , the woman h! expected
break loose and-run. Of Course she, yyy'
pursued,' captured and brought back. ,
Ap parties assemble around .the ex
pectant couple. A bag 'of bread is
brdught forward by the woman's rela
tives and deposited near her. _ In like
manner the man's relatives bring -for
woad a bay of meat and deposit bear
him. The man's friends and relatives'
now begin to throw presents upon 'the
head and shoulders of the woman.
These presents are of any kitul:that the
}.
donors.choose to give, as ,articles of
clothing, money, trinkets; gibbons, eta.
As soon' as thrown • they. / are quickly
snatched off by the woman's relatives 1
and distributed among themselves.
During all this time the couple sit very
quietly and demurely, not a' word
spoken by either. When all the pres
ents have been thrown and distributed
the couple, now man and wife, arise,
the provisions - from the bags are spread
and, just as in civilized life, the cere
mony is rounded off with a festival.
The festival over, the'company disperse
andile gallant grooM conducts his
bride to his home, where - they enter
t,
upon the toils and responsibilities of
the. future.
Parents who allow their children to grow
up with scrofulous humors bursting from
every pore are guilty of a great wrong..
Think of th - ein pointed out as branded with
\ea loathsome disease, and you will readily
procure them the Cuticura Remedies.
When grassboppers are so plenty as
to make the- pastures poor, gobblers
grow fat.
