English+E+Question+5

In 300 words please defend Dave, the protagonist of "The Man Who Was Almost a Man", and argue that he is not ultimately responsible for the shooting of Jenny, the mule. As such, he should not be forced to pay Mr. Hawkins the money for accidentally killing her. Please think this through carefully and feel free top email me if you are lost (saying that he shot the mule by accident is not an adequate defense.) The deadline is 6pm on Friday the 24th September. Thanks.
