Florida Seminoles
Have Odd Customs
n .
Different in habit* from any other
Indiana in this country the Florida
Seminoles, now numbering leas than
500^ibulej?contiiiue to maintain their
independence in the depths of the
Everglades. Long embittered at the
United States, they still refuse ,to
swear allegiance to Uncle Sam and
are practically allowed to govern
themselxff. ,
At any rate, they have the power
of life and death over their member*
and in other ways mete out their own
laws irrespective of state and nutiorH
al statutes. Not *o long ago they
caught, trie<l and sentenced to death
a tribesman for murder. The penalty
was exacted with a club. Just now
these Indians are deeply stirred by
the case of a Seminole maiden who
succumbed to modernism to-such an
extent that Bhe donned flapper garb
and otherwise imitated the white
girls. She is deemed subject to
tribal punishment for turning renegade.
One of the peculiar Seminole customs
is the wearing of knee-length
skirts by the men. Some of .the
younger braves now occasionally wear
trousers. A Pathfinder editor who
recently made a tour of Florida saw j
a Model-T Ford filled with Seminoles
bound for town being driven by a
Seminole youth in immaculate white
duck trousers. However, those
Seminoles who g* to live with the
whites are ostracized as far as the
tribe is concerned.
Women also wear the bulky onepiece
Mother-Hubburd&ike garment,
but their skirts drag the ground.
Children are named after the mother
instead of the father and married
rnqn and women live in separate
shacks. ' As soon as a child can take
care of itself it is given a hut of its
own. Seminole boys can't marry
until they have been "warriors" for
at least a year. To become a warrior
the boy attends an annual meeting
of the council, or Green Corn
dance, and fasts for three days. On
the third day he strips himself of all
clpthing and lies flat on the ground,
face down. Then a live coal of fire
is placed on his back between his
shoulders. He must remain in this
position without flinching until the
coal has lost its heat. After this
ordeal he becomes a warrior of the
tribe.
When an Indian woman loses her
husband by death the head of the
council appoints a man to look after
her and her children, to see that she
is. provided with food and given protfcetfen
until she again marries. But
she/'is get obliged to marry her
protector. When a man marries he
is required to supply a place in hi*
canu) for his mother-in-law, and
iMMVtbr her.
The, Florida Seminoles are made up
of two distinct tribes. The northern
tribe, locally known as the Cow
Creeks, Speak the Mushogean language;
the southern or Big Cypress
Indians, use a dialect known a3
Miccosukee. The Seminoles are
among the healthiest Indians in the
United States, hookworm being their
chief annoyance. Qnly a few whites
brave the Everglades to live among
the Sefninoles. The Seminole roadway
is the murky, slimy water, which
connects up their swampy retreats.
