Answer:

Explanation:

Hi!

So, let's just work on examining the excerpt we've been given. From the look of it, it appears that the County Attorney is not embraced in this area.

We get a hint of this from Mrs. Hale's first reply: (stiffly) There's a great deal of work to be done on a farm'.

She appears blunt, and the writer even tells us she says this in a stiff tone. This shows that she is not in the liking of the County Attorney, or his attitude.

I hope I helped you! :)
