But when they commit sin, he throws them into poverty and suffering, and sends them an early death. The Samoyedes believe that in this life men are requited for their works, good or evil. A suspected thief is brought before a halie, which has been smeared with blood, and is asked solemnly whether he is guilty. An oath of innocence if taken thus may be relied upon, for no Samoyede dare perjure himself under such grave circumstances. However, crime and dishonesty are very rare among them. The sacrifice to the hahe is generally a reindeer, of which the hoofs, hide, and head are hung near the idol: its countenance is smeared with blood, and part of the fat is thrown into the fire.

The graves of the unbaptized are furnished with a knife, an axe, a lance, etc., for the maintenance of the dead in the other world. When a Tddibe died, the custom was to fence in the spot of burial, and lay the body on a wooden framework, ..
