[When she sees Shirley take off her boots, she slips off her own footwear. While Charlotte likely has boots in her apartment somewhere, Fenimore did not notice them in her rush and ended up with shoes, instead. Fenimore does notice the Orerines clothing, but it does not strike her as odd, as Shirley wears her Orerines clothes a lot and in Fenimore's mind, it makes sense that Shirley would wear Orerines clothing to keep from drawing too much attention in an Orerines village.
