At this emergency appeared on the scene Prof. {{Style S-Small capitals|Cushing}}, a zealous student of ethnology and theology. He saw his opportunity. Being desirous of learning the history of the Zuni tribe, its faith and its literature, he offered to get for them a supply of the much-desired sea-water, provided they would make a Zuni of him. The simple people agreed to this proposition, the only conditions being that the Professor should bring in a scalp, and marry a Zuni woman. Nobody knows where the Professor secured his scalp, although there are ugly rumors concerning the mysterious disappearance of the hair of a “subject” in the Boston Medical College. To marry a Zuni woman he flatly refused, and this part of the contract was waived, as they say in law. Last Tuesday Prof. {{Style S-Small capitals|Cushing}} and his band of Zuni ritualists were taken to Deer Island, in Boston Harbor, by the Mayor and Common Council, accompanied by the Rev. {{Style S-Small capitals|Phillips Brooks}}, Collector {{Style S-Small capitals|Beard}}, several Harvard Professors, and a steam-boat load of “citizens generally.” There were incantations, delightfully pagan ceremonies, and a general ducking all around. Prof. {{Style S-Small capitals|Cushing}} was initiated into the thirty-third degree of the Zuni faith, and may now learn the sacred epic, which is never written out, and which may be rattled off orally in twenty-six hours. The ceremonies over, the Zunis were bundled into wagons, with their demijohns and bottles, and the City Government of Boston and the Faculty of Harvard College went home with the delightful consciousness that they had assisted in preserving one of the oldest and most truly bric-à-brac forms of heathenism known to man. | At this emergency appeared on the scene Prof. {{Style S-Small capitals|Cushing}}, a zealous student of ethnology and theology.
