The Henry house stood in the Bristleton section of town, a towering structure; it had once been the home to Charles Henry himself, a recluse, until he passed it down to his children upon his own death.

On one occasion, individuals passing by saw him being carried by two men while kicking and screaming and was pushed into a vehicle. He has never been heard from again. It is only a package that I must deliver to the residence, but even such a small task as this one brings me despair.

2. Closely read the text. In what way is the narrator affected by his setting?

a. He gladly accepts a friendship with the Henrys.

b. He begins to wonder why the Henrys are odd.

c. He has become afraid to visit the Henry home.
