When all had entered and seated themselves Manabush asked why they had traveled so great a distance to see him. All but one Indian replied that they wanted some hunting medicine. They wished to be able to supply their people with plenty of food. Manabush granted their request. Manabush now asked the Indian, who had not joined in this request, what he desired. He said, I do not desire hunting medicine. I wish you to give me everlasting life. " Manabush was angry. He took this man by the shoulders and pushed him down, saying as he did this, "You shall be a stone. Thus you will be everlasting."
