La Salle, who asked counsel of no man, resolved, in spite of his followers, to send back the " Griffin, " laden with these furs, and others collected on the way, to satisfy his creditors. ^ It was a rash reso- lution, for it involved trusting her to the pilot; who had already proved either incompetent or treacherous.
