Answer with Explanation:

The story centers on the great deed that "the man with no name" did when he used his own unique strength and ability in order to gain his own name.

The author developed the theme by starting with the protagonist's (the canoe breaker) failure in order to have a name. As it was stated, "the man tried to kill a bear, but had failed." Although he was brave, he felt very sad about returning always empty-handed. The author then showed how the man was patient enough not to give up because even during the summer days, he would go through forest and climb hills just to search for something to catch and prove himself. He was then able to know that the Shuswaps (their opponent Indians) were following their trails. When the Shuswaps spotted him, they immediately fled towards him but he was able to think bravely enough "by lying with his face down and his arms stretched." This shows how the author incorporated the beliefs of the Indians that when a man does that, the "Great Spirit" calls the body's spirit for a long journey. This part shows how the canoe breaker was wise enough to fool his enemies.
