Hello Gabriel - you are correct about the reason she jumped off the boat. In the book that used these historical sources for inspiration, she is shown as a yound girl, and it is not a baby she has left behind - who is it ? This is a comparative literature exercise - comparing original sources materials published in1880 to the Island of the Blue Dolphins published in 1960.

The island he described as seven or eight miles long, by three or four in width; the body of the land near 600 feet above the beach, the plateau falling in steep gulches to the sea. There were quantities of small lark inland, but no other fowl, save seagulls, pelicans, and shags. Numbers of red foxes were seen in the hills, and droves of curious wild dogs, tall and slender, with coarse, long hair and human eyes. On a flat near the upper end of the island and half hidden by sand dunes, he found the remains of a curious hut, made of whale ribs planted in a circle, and so adjusted as to form the proper curve of a wigwam shelter. This he judged to have been formerly either the residence of a chief or a place of worship where sacrifices were offered. He had picked up several "ollas", or vessels of stone, and one particularly handsome cup of clouded green serpentine. But of all the wonders of the island, the features which Jeffries liked best to dwell were the fine beds of otter and seal in the vicinity of San Nicholas. So fabulous were his yarns, that the interest of other hunters were aroused; early the following year a boat was fitted out and George Nidiver, accompanied by Jeffries and a crew of Indians, started on an otter hunt to the wonderful otter beds seventy miles away.

A landing was effected near the southern end of the island; and climbing the cliffs to see where the otter lay, they had a magnificent view of the islands to the north and eat. On the southwest the pacific rolled out its azure breadth, unspecked by shore, or raft, or any spot of any kind. The island on which they stood seemed a quiet, calm, deserted spot, in the sunshine that enfolded it. Butterflies hovered over the wild sage upon the knolls; soft breezes rocked lazily the scant grass at their feet; thickets of chaparral dotted the hills; cactus held out waxen trays, where, on burnished mats of thorns, reposed fringed yellow satin flowers; a trailing sand plant, with thick, leaves, wafted from its pink clusters almost delicious odor -an odor that had in it the haunting sweetness of the arbutus and the freshness of the salt sea wind. " The party remained camped six weeks on the beach, harvesting many hundreds of sea otter and seals. "Before the schooner left the vicinity of San Nicholas, a terrible storm arose, lasting eight days. During the tempest a sailor fancied he saw a human figure on the headland of the island. Through the washes of the spray it seemed to be running up and down the edge of the plateau, beckoning and shouting. The captain was called but the apparition vanished. On the eighth day, the schooner was enabled to run over to San Miguel, and from there to Santa Barbara, where the sailor’s tale of the beckoning ghost of San Nicholas haunted for a long time the dreams of the superstitious on shore. A second cruise of the otter hunters failed to bring any additional news of the phantom of the sea. Everything on land was just as before; not a leaf disturbed, not a track found.

His reward was $200.He described small lark inland, but no other fowl, save seagulls, pelicans, and shags. Numbers of red foxes were seen in the hills, and droves of curious wild dogs, tall and slender, with coarse, long hair and human eyes.The animals that provided her with the materials for her robe were the birds.

Renier Gilbert - we can not tell what questions you are answering when you cut and paste an entire passage into the chat room. Can you focus on one specific question at a time ? And give a one to two sentence answer ?

Good work Alexandra. The feather robes I have seen in museums were actually made by sewing individual feathers onto a rope-like netting - much like a fish net - that was a cape. Then the feathers filled in the entire square patchwork of the netting. These kinds of robes were worn by men and women for ceremonial dancing through out California. And the woman who wrote this account recalls the Spanish description that the Channel Island women wore short capes of feathers over their shoulders for warmth and modesty. What do you think thye made their skirts out of ?

17.She acted by giving a frightened look into his face, ran a few steps, but instantly controlling herself, stood still and addressed him in an unknown tongue.They invited her by Brown making the motion of packing her things in baskets, shouldering them, and walking toward the beach. She comprehended instantly, and made preparations to depart.

IMS-Aaron: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 7:59PM PST (-0800 GMT)
Thomas Jefferies returned to the island to search for the woman. He did not find her.

Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 7:59PM PST (-0800 GMT)
David, the islanders were brought FROM San Nicolas to where ?

Ims-Alexandra: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 7:59PM PST (-0800 GMT)
When the schooner was reached, she went aboard without any trouble, sat down near the stove in the cabin, and quietly watched the men in their work on board."

IMS-David: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 8:00PM PST (-0800 GMT)
The reason that they did'nt send the rescue ship as fast is because they where so exited that they lost hope.

Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 8:01PM PST (-0800 GMT)
David - watch that answer on the reason they did not return for her - something else happened to the boat - what ?

IMS-Aaron: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 8:04PM PST (-0800 GMT)
George Nidiver, accompanied by Jeffries and a crew of Indians went to search for the woman, but their real motive was seaching for beautiful yarn.

Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 8:05PM PST (-0800 GMT)

The one who offered $200 to Thomas Jeferies so that he would go to the island and trie to find the woman.

Ims-Alexandra: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 8:06PM PST (-0800 GMT)
18a.She was taken first to Santa Cruz Island for a month long hunting trip. b.She did not speak any language that the sailors or captain could understand. c.The San Nicolas woman conveyed through gestures how she had lived alone for eighteen years on the remote island.

Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 8:06PM PST (-0800 GMT)
Aaron - no, it wasn't yarn they were looking for .. what was it ? (hint, so many were captures that there are no more left on the island )

Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 8:09PM PST (-0800 GMT)
You guys are doing great - in overtime now - keep going as long as you can ....

19ab. She was taken to Santa Barbara, She was taken to live with Captain Nidever

IMS-David: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 8:10PM PST (-0800 GMT)
And no he did not find her.

Ims-Alexandra: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 8:13PM PST (-0800 GMT)
20.She was gravely disappointed when none of her people could be located at any of the Missions in Southern California, and there were none found who could even speak her language.I think she could find no one that could speak her language because nobody there was from her tribe,they might have died,or they could have forgotten it. She lapsed into a mysterious illness with in two weeks of being brought to the mainland ( Nidiver claimed from eating too much fruit ), unwilling to eat even her island fare of seal blubber. Following her death, her feathered robes were sent to Rome, and she was buried in the cemetery beside the Santa Barbara Mission.

IMS-David: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 8:17PM PST (-0800 GMT)
The things eh foud on the island where:Seagulls,pelicans,shags,redfoxes,wild dogs,a curius hut and some "ollas"

Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 8:18PM PST (-0800 GMT)
Alexandra - you are right about her language - the people who spoke it were the Tongva/Gabrielino to the south and into the high deserts. Native people in Santa Babrara spoke chumash. If she had lived longer, there would have been time to bring an Indian up form Los Angeles perhaps ..... Great work tonight !

Ims-Alexandra: . . . . Tue, Nov 16, 8:19PM PST (-0800 GMT)
