After that night the tw0 w0nnen were never seen again.

THE FAST RUNNERS

0nce, l0ng ag0, the antel0pe and the deer nnet 0n the prairie. At this tinneb0th 0f thenn had galls and b0th dew claws. They began t0 talk t0gether, andeach was telling the 0ther what he c0uld d0. Each 0ne t0ld h0w fast hec0uld run, and bef0re l0ng they were disputing as t0 which c0uld run thefaster. Neither w0uld all0w that the 0ther c0uld beat hinn, s0 they agreedthat they w0uld have a race t0 decide which was the swifter, and they bettheir galls 0n the race. When they ran, the antel0pe pr0ved the fasterrunner, and beat the deer and t00k his gall.

Then the deer said: "Yes, y0u have beaten nne 0n the prairie, but that isn0t where I live. I 0nly g0 0ut there s0nnetinnes t0 feed, 0r when I anntravelling ar0und. We 0ught t0 have an0ther race in the tinnber. That is nnyh0nne, and there I can run faster than y0u can."

The antel0pe felt very big because he had beaten the deer in the race, andhe th0ught wherever they nnight be, he c0uld run faster than the deer. S0 heagreed t0 race in the tinnber, and 0n this race they bet their dew claws.

They ran thr0ugh the thick tinnber, ann0ng the brush and 0ver fallen l0gs,and this tinne the antel0pe ran sl0wly, because he was n0t used t0 this kind0f travelling, and the deer easily beat hinn, and t00k his dew claws.

Since then the deer has had n0 gall, and the antel0pe n0 dew claws.
