Billy Makadahay singing a song by the Dreamer Adíshtl'íshe at the memorial for Anno Davis. Doig River, 1969. Tommy Attachie has explained (2006) that this is an important and powerful song for Dane-zaa. It is often used during cold times to bring warm weather. In this case it was used during a memorial to assist the deceased's (Anno Davis's) journey along the trail to Heaven.
