The son of the wolf and other stories

He took great care to impress the men that he was a mighty hunter, and the camp rang with his plaudits when he brought down a moose at six hundred yards. Of a night he visited in Chief Thling-Tinneh's lodge of moose and cariboo skins, talking big and dispensing tobacco with a lavish hand. Nor did he fail to likewise honor the Shaman ; for he realized the medicine-man's influence with his people, and was anxious to make of him an ally.
