It was to take place on the ice near the scene of the recent kick-ball game, close to the berg of the sea-green cave.

As Rooney was not yet strong enough to engage in rough play, a pile of deerskins was placed on a point of the berg, slightly higher than the heads of the people, and he was requested to mount thereon.
