« La seconde paire de mocassins, de Kiskissink, est faite de peau d’orignal tannée et il manque les dessus. Comme la paire décrite plus tôt, celle-ci est de style « froncée » et les dessous ont été souvent raccommodés. Il n’y a pas de décoration sur la languette, mais l’extrémité haute de la partie basse est recouverte d’un tissu de coton de plusieurs couleurs et légèrement texturé. (fig. 30b). »
