He
was
a
thin
man
--
almost
painfully
thin
,
as
if
he
had
just
begun
to
recover
from
a
serious
illness
--
and
his
hair
had
started
to
recede
.
His
wife
touched
his
shoulder
tentatively
with
one
of
her
red
,
wash-swollen
hands
.
He
did
n't
look
at
it
or
reach
up
to
touch
it
,
and
after
a
moment
she
took
it
back
.
It
occurred
to
me
,
fleetingly
,
that
they
looked
more
like
brother
and
sister
than
husband
and
wife
--
he
'd
gotten
the
brains
,
she
'd
gotten
the
looks
,
but
neither
of
them
had
escaped
some
underlying
resemblance
,
a
heredity
that
could
never
be
escaped
.
Later
,
going
home
,
I
realized
they
did
n't
look
alike
at
all
;
what
made
them
seem
to
was
the
aftermath
of
stress
and
the
lingering
of
sorrow
.
It
's
strange
how
pain
marks
our
faces
,
and
makes
us
look
like
family
.
She
said
,
"
Yew-all
want
a
cold
drink
,
Mr
--
?
"
"
It
's
Edgecombe
,
"
I
said
.
"
Paul
Edgecombe
.
And
thank
you
.
A
cold
drink
would
be
wonderful
,
ma'am
.
"
She
went
back
inside
.
I
held
out
my
hand
to
Hammersmith
,
who
gave
it
a
brief
shake
.
His
grip
was
limp
and
cold
.
He
never
took
his
eyes
off
the
kids
down
at
the
bottom
of
the
yard
.
"
Mr.
Hammersmith
,
I
'm
E
Block
superintendent
at
Cold
Mountain
State
Prison
.
That
's
--
"
"
I
know
what
it
is
,
"
he
said
,
looking
at
me
with
a
little
more
interest
.
"
So
--
the
bull-goose
screw
of
the
Green
Mile
is
standing
on
my
back
porch
,
just
as
big
as
life
.
What
brings
you
fifty
miles
to
talk
to
the
local
rag
's
only
full-time
reporter
?
"
"
John
Coffey
,
"
I
said
.
I
think
I
expected
some
sort
of
strong
reaction
(
the
kids
who
could
have
been
twins
working
at
the
back
of
my
mind
...
and
perhaps
the
doghouse
,
too
;
the
Dettericks
had
had
a
dog
)
,
but
Hammersmith
only
raised
his
eyebrows
and
sipped
at
his
drink
.
"
Coffey
's
your
problem
now
,
is
n't
he
?
"
Hammersmith
asked
.
"
He
's
not
much
of
a
problem
,
"
I
said
.
"
He
does
n't
like
the
dark
,
and
he
cries
a
lot
of
the
time
,
but
neither
thing
makes
much
of
a
problem
in
our
line
of
work
.
We
see
worse
.
"
"
Cries
a
lot
,
does
he
?
"
Hammersmith
asked
.
"
Well
,
he
's
got
a
lot
to
cry
about
,
I
'd
say
.
Considering
what
he
did
.
What
do
you
want
to
know
?
