a rose for emily What significance do you see in the strand of iron-gray hair found on the second pillow?

The hair suggests not
only that Misshas been
sleeping with the dead body in the attic bedroom, but that she has been
doing
so recently. If the hair were of a different color (not grey), we might have assumed
that
the habit of sleeping with the body was an old one, not a recent
one.
