And they'll follow that meal track to the lake and go browsing down the creek that leads out of it to find the robbers that killed me and took the things.

They won't ever hunt the river for anything but my dead carcass.

Jackson's Island is good enough for me; I know that island pretty well, and nobody ever comes there.

And then I can paddle over to town nights, and slink around and pick up things I want.
