Read the excerpt from "The Monkey's Paw.” "Is he hurt?" demanded the mother, wildly.
The visitor bowed in assent. "Badly hurt," he said, quietly, "but he is not in any pain."
"Oh, thank God!" said the old woman, clasping her hands. "Thank God for that! Thank –"
She broke off suddenly as the sinister meaning of the assurance dawned upon her and she saw the awful confirmation of her fears in the other's per{v}erted face. She caught her breath, and turning to her slower-witted husband, laid her trembling old hand upon his. There was a long silence.
"He was caught in the machinery," said the visitor at length in a low voice.
"Caught in the machinery," repeated Mr. White, in a dazed fashion, "yes."

How is Mr. White’s reaction different than Mrs. White’s in the excerpt?

He understands more quickly that Herbert is {REDACTED}.
He is angrier than his wife that Herbert is {REDACTED}.
He is sadder than his wife that Herbert is {REDACTED}.
He seems less surprised that Herbert is {REDACTED}.

The {REDACTED} is the thing you become when you pass on and it starts with a 'd' ends with a 'd' and has an 'a' and 'e' in it
