A Naked Boy

September 10, 1805

Today while Colter and Seaman went hunting they found a boy if you can believe that. At first Colter thought that Seaman was picking up a scent of an animal (a bear or deer). He ran to where Seaman was running.  He slipped on ice because he was running so fast but he then he realized that it wasn't animal. That Seaman had actually found a boy sitting on a rock, eyes closed, naked, in the middle of the snow. Now Colter must have been completely bewildered because even I was when I herd the story. The boy was surprised.  He ran away without much of a trace.  Quite a weird experience I'd say!  Later Colter saw three Nez Perce warriors who promised to lead us to their village tomorrow but I don't think they'll follow through...
