Which excerpt from The Land, Part 4 best supports the claim that Paul wants to be an independent person? My daddy gave a nod, as if he were considering the matter. "All right, Paul," he said. "I'll keep an eye on Mitchell, and I'll let you know." "No," I said. "No, I won't be here, not here on my daddy's land. One day I'll have land of my own. I've got to have something all my own." Mitchell didn't say anything, and we sat there in silence looking out over my daddy's land together. After a while I said, "One day I'll have a place like this." I figured, though, my daddy would need one more hand, and I asked him if Mitchell could go with us. "He's right good with horses now," I said.
