“The stone was close to Coyote when he came up to another den of Mountain-Lions. They also told Coyote to pass on, as they could not do anything for him. After a while Coyote came to a Buffalo standing all alone, but when the Buffalo found out that it was the stone running after Coyote he told him to pass on. At last Coyote came to a place where the Bull-Bats stayed. Coyote said: “Grandchildren, there is a person running after me.””
