This shows that John is a merciful being and desires forgiveness from his wife and God, therefore demonstrating traits of a good man.

Second of all, when her husband Patrick told Mary that he will leave her,even though she is a good wife it sounded really “cold” and was careless. In the story he says “I’ve got something to tell you,” and also says “Go on, sit down” this to me sounds a bit harsh considering he didn’t say “please” or “may”. All of these variables : her shock at the news, the pregnancy she is going through and rough news, made her think of a life in ruin, which consequently lead her to a sudden frenzy. The third reason why Mary is a sane individual is because she was smart enough to plan a positive order of events to cover up her murder. For example, in the story it states “It was extraordinary, now, how clear her mind became all of a sudden,” and also “She began thinking very fast.” This explains how she was not insane and the murder was a temporary weakening in her judgement.

She did not have much hope left anyways for her life because she annoyed the misfit with her ugly and selfish ways.

"Listen, " she said, "You shouldn't call yourself the misfit because I know you're a good man at heart. I can just look at you and tell" (421).

Medea’s actions are justified by her emotions as they are difficult thing to control at times.

The Misfit is a serial killer that gets pleasure from doing harmful things, but he is the most consistent in his beliefs and no one can change his mind, making him the Christ figure of the story. A Southern Lady in most people’s mind is a gentle, loving woman who has an amazing accent and loves her some Jesus. In “A Good Man Is Hard to Find”, the Grandmother who thinks of herself in this way, is far from what others may consider a Southern Lady.
