Chapter 4: Roland Weary

Another sad addition to this chapter was when Weary died in the train car. Billy states that he, "...died - of gangrene that had start in his mangled feet" (Pg 79). This simple fact that he died isn't fascinating at all. It's what he did just prior to his passing. He made sure that everybody in his train car knew who "killed him". He told everyone that Billy had done it.
