Description:This story was recorded in October 2003.
The overall goal of the project is the documentation and preservation of the Hoocąk language. The project therefore includes the following sub-projects: (1) (audio- and video-)recording, analysing, processing and archiving a representative corpus of Hoocąk texts, (2) linguistic analysis and representation of texts that have previously been recorded by other linguists or anthropologists, (3) development of a comprehensive and linguistically consistent lexicon, (4) training of Hoocąk language instructors, (5) development of teaching material (6) further analyses (e.g. investigation of dialectal differences among Wisconsin and Nebraska Hoocąks)
A man went hunting. When he returned he found the wigwam where he had left his wife torn apart. While looking for her a white wolf appeared telling him that he'll protect him. The man finally found his wife but was put down by others who then killed him by running over him with their horses. The wolf collected all the bones of this man, put them together, and in the third night this man came back to life. The wolf and the man then went to the people who had done this to him and took revenge by killing them the same way they had killed him.
The actors knew each other before the recording.
MS32 speaks Hoocąk fluently and has assisted us several times (for dictionary work and recordings). He is our youngest consultant, and is considered to be a good speaker. MS32 works as Hoocąk language instructor.
MS4 is our main consultant and a highly respected elder and Hoocąk speaker. He worked for the movie industry (Hollywood) for 40 years as an actor. MS4 appears in several recordings.

He has contributed some data to the documentation project. HG is a member of the Hoocąk tribe. He is married to FS16.
