Chapter 25
- The character at the beginning of this chapter is "overwhelmed by this country that his companions took for granted," and he thinks that life is "destined to go on forever." Although we don't know his name we know that he was a miner from Atlanta, Georgia who is headed to the Montana Territory to go mine there to find gold.
- Fast Horse ambushed some of the Napikwans with Owl child and his gang and Fast Horse took their many-shots gun and the other weapons.
- Owl Child and his followers ambushed the Napikwan wagons. They took the items that they needed.
- Fast Horse is concerned because they struck too close to their people's camps this time.
- Owl Child is different because usually he would mock Fast Horse for saying that but this time he agrees with Fast Horse. He is fearing the Napikwans will blame Mountain Chief instead.
- At the end of the chapter, Fast Horse thinks Owl Child's days are numbered, but he doesn't know why it is.
