Ishi’s attraction to “the Monster,” which is actually a train for the white settlers, foreshadows Ishi’s journey later in life to live amongst those whom he has always considered “the enemy.” Likewise, Ishi’s encounter with the white hunters in this section (Chapter One) foreshadows the encroaching saldu and the journey of Ishi’s people to remain hidden.
