Gathering of Old Men Chapters 6 and 7

In Chapters 6 and 7 more men are gathering at Mathu's to proclaim that they killed Beau. Before they arrive they make two major stops, first at the sugar cane field and the second at the graveyard.

  • Explain using 3-4 complete sentences why these two stops are significant. What happened? What do these stops symbolize?
  • Also list two themes in Chapter 6-7 and explain using 3-4 complete sentences why you selected them.  
* Examples of themes: love, hate, freedom, manhood, womanhood, peace

    Themes-Hate, Love I chose these because they have love for each other or they wouldn't be there for each other.

    They are significant because they are helping each other.

    i pick love as a theme because if they didnt love each other then the wouldnt be protecting whoever killed Beau and also they love each other because they are all there for each other

    I would say that they are very loyal. They owned up to what they did. They all I guess came to a conclusion of what is going on.

    I Think The Theme Is Love Because They Wouldnt Stick Up For Each Other If They Didnt Love Each Other. Those Trips Were Very Significant !

    I belive the theme of these chapters is pride, dignity, courage, and pride.
