« Les sept autres blagues restantes sont de forme rectangulaire et sont fermées par des rabats semi-circulaires. Une des poches est faite à partir de la peau de la patte d’un orignal qui a encore ses poils. Elle a une lanière en peau d’orignal attachée au centre du rabat et est décorée avec une seule courte rangée de petites perles multicolores sur un côté (fig. 20f). »
