.... settled. This just so happens to be Indian land. As the story progresses, Dunbar befriends the tribe, turns against his Northern army, and goes to live with the Sioux. The tone here is a more warm and friendly environment, because Dunbar realizes that his new friends are more civil than men of his own kind.

Dunbar never ends up going back to the white men’s army. The way that Blake presents the overall use of tone in this story only makes it more intriguing and ex .....

.... the same road" (99) means that his father was afraid that John would make the same mistake, which he has. Perhaps that is why he is so strict on his son. John was a very selfish young boy. He is concerned more about himself and what he is losing than what is important. He sneaks out of his hut to go to the Makeno Village to see the mother of his unborn child, Wahumu. As he walks along the path, he passes a woman. They engage in idle conversation, and he continues down the path.
