Answer:

The old Warner reaction shows a discontent in abandoning the traditions of his region, which shows that he is very attached to them, that he does not consider traditions from other places as they are irrelevant to him. This shows that he is very faithful to his own concepts.

Explanation:

"The lottery" by Shirley Jackson tells the story of a region that had a barbaric and violent tradition called "lottery" that happens every year on June 27th. This ritual consisted of a person being drawn to be stoned to death. This was used as a sacrifice to ensure a good harvest.

Over the years, this ritual begins to be frowned upon by some inhabitants and as shown above, some of them do not want to participate in this anymore. Upon learning of this, Old Man Warner is disgusted because he is extremely attached to the traditions of his people.
