Both characters are misunderstood, both are gossiped about with untruths, both stay to themselves, and both try to keep themselves private. These two men illustrate what happens when assumption and rumors circulate and are repeatedly addressed by people who do not know what they are talking about but insist upon gossiping anyway.
