Candy

• I’ve had him since he was a pup
• I ain’t much good, but I could cook and tend the chickens
• “A guy on a ranch don’t never listen nor he don’t ask no questions.”
• “I shouldn’t ought to of let no stranger shoot my dog.”
• “I wish somebody shoot me if I got old and crippled”
• “I wasn’t listenin. I was just standin’ in the shade a minute scratching my dog”
• “Curley gon-ta wanta get ‘im lynched. Curley’ll get ‘im killed.”
• “Glove fulla Vaseline”
• How is candy presented?

  kind but mean - knows everything about the ranch, frail and powerless like his dog, a representation of what happens to everyone when they get old in American society.
