All makes sense

In the story "A Rose for Emily", their are a few details that foreshadow the ending of the story. First of all, the arsenic she bought is one of the biggest indicators that she poisoned the man. When she bought it, she would not give the reason for buying the poison. Also, when people knew she bought it, they thought that she did that so that she could poison herself. But when that doesn't happen, then you begin to wonder why she bought the arsenic, which was for her love. Also, another indicator is that when Homer returned home, he was never seen again. And this is very suspicious as well. A final detail that foreshadows the ending is whenever anybody saw Emily through her downstairs window, there was not one time when people saw Homer as well. So all these details lead to the end of the story when the people find Homer dead on the mattress.
