It might be said that the "honest Tradesman" is Jerry. He refers himself with this term because during the day he has an honest job at the bank however, at night, he is a "resurrection man", he digs up corpses to sell for a profit. It might be import to clarify that this references is used ironical in order to contrast with his night job.

Explanation:
I would say the 2nd option, but I'm not exactly sure
Though obviously subjective due to the fact that you’re allowed to pick a prompt, I think it would be stronger to claim that novel is a statement on cruelty on the world. This is clear throughout the novel, but if you’re in a rush and haven’t read it I understand! In that case, AT LEAST watch and read summaries concerning themes and major character developments and events (Sparknotes, Cliffnotes)
Some things you might touch on to communicate this claim may be:
- Societal values of the 1930s, relate to historical context of the Great Depression
- Industrialization of man, seeing people as no more than a means for labor
- Disregard for human and animal life, suffering (Candy’s dog)
-The pursuit of the American dream yet it being unobtainable
- Raw violence, a lack of sympathy, grief
***The end dynamic of Lennie and George. Please look into the significance, it’s one of the most profound moments in the book. Did George feel responsible for his friend’s actions? Was he making a sacrifice to save him from suffering even if there is cruelty in the act itself?
I wish I could help you with specific evidence but if you’ve read the book, I hope you can connect these ideas back to support your claim. Of Mice and Men is really effective in making a statement on morality and just the raw definition of what it means to be human. It definitely explores the nature of dreams, sacrifice, and loneliness which makes it so great. Good luck!! :)
