And finally they see Ada lying in the distance.
And when they get closer, she gets up and she starts running away again and a bottle falls out of her hand.
And they see that it's a half empty bottle of liniment, which they realize she has drunk in order to try to kill herself.
It turns out that that morning she had seen Knight sharpening his knife again and was so convinced that he was going to kill her that she ran away and sort of tried to do it first.
She's sick to her stomach from drinking the liniment, but otherwise she's okay and she's able to make a full recovery.
The men carry her back to camp.
They don't know what to do.
Clearly something's wrong with Ada psychologically.
They want to protect her.
They want to protect themselves.
She's starting to ask them to kill her when she's asleep.
It's just terrifying and erratic and they don't know what to do.
They are not trained for this and there's no way to get her back home or ask anyone for help.
night wrote in his journal he did have a bit of a sense of humor he said he said that ada wanted to marry crawford she went on to say that if crawford would not have her she was willing to marry any one of the rest of us rather a gloomy statement for us the men want to take care of her but they don't know how yeah i mean what would you do
Yeah.
I mean, but you also have to plan for, there's always going to be unprecedented situations added on top.
But they decide that because she's so fixated on Crawford, maybe that's upsetting to her because he doesn't love her back.
Yeah.
So maybe it'll be better if she's not seeing him all the time.
And it might be better for Crawford, too.
