It was quite dark before cheap ugg boots we set forth. Robinson Crusoewalked on as if he knew exactly where my camp was. Probablythe whole catastrophe had by this time been bruited for milesabove and below the spot. Five other stalwart young fellowskept us company, each with salmon spear in hand. The walkseemed interminable; but I had shipped a goodly cargo oflatent energy.
     　　When I got home, instead of Samson, I found the camp occupiedby half a dozen Indians. They were squatted round a fire,smoking. Each one, so it seemed, had appropriated somearticle of our goods. Our blankets were over theirshoulders. One had William's long rifle in his lap. Anotherwas sitting upon discount ugg boots mine. A few words were exchanged with thenewcomers, who seated themselves beside their friends; but nomore notice was taken of me than of the mules which wereeating rushes close to us. How was I, single-handed, toregain possession? That was the burning question. Adiplomatic course commanded itself as the only possible one.
     　　There were six men who expected rewards, but the wherewithalwas held in seisin by other six. The fight, if there wereone, should be between the two parties. I would hope toprove, that when thieves fall out honest men come by theirown.
     　　There is one adage whose truth I needed discount ugg boots no further proof of.
     　　Its first line apostrophises the 'Gods and little fishes.'
     　　My chief need was for the garment which completes the rhyme.
     　　Indians, having no use for corduroy small clothes, I speedilydonned mine. Next I quietly but quickly snatched upWilliam's rifle, and presented it to Robinson Crusoe, pattinghim on the back as if with honours of knighthood. Thedispossessed was not well pleased, but Sir Robinson was; and,to all appearances, he was a man of leading, if of darkness.
     　　While words were passing between the two, I sauntered roundto the gentleman who sat cross-legged upon my weapon. He wasas heedless of cheap rolex watches me as I, outwardly, of him. When well withinreach, mindful that 'DE L'AUDACE' is no bad motto, in loveand war, I suddenly placed my foot upon his chest, tightenedthe extensor muscle of my leg, and sent him heels over head.
     　　In an instant the rifle was mine, and both barrels cocked.
     　　After yesterday's immersion it might not have gone off, butthe offended Indian, though furious, doubtless inferred fromthe histrionic attitude which I at once struck, that I feltconfident it would. With my rifle in hand, with my suitelooking to me to transfer the plunder to them, my positionwas now secure. discount ugg boots I put on a shirt - the only one left to me,by the way - my shoes and stockings, and my shooting coat;and picking out William's effects, divided these, with hisammunition, his carpet-bag, and his blankets, amongst myoriginal friends. I was beginning to gather my own thingstogether, when Samson, leading my horse, unexpectedly rodeinto the midst of us. The night was far advanced. TheIndians took their leave; and added to the obligation bybequeathing us a large fresh salmon, which served us for manya day to come.
