Carlson - Who is He?

In part 2 of the book, we are introduced to "A powerful, big-stomached man" (35) named Carlson. Carlson is a man who seems confident, and determined in helping others. In part 2 he says he would help take care of Candy's dog. Carlson seems like he has a low and loud voice because in the book, "He chuckled at his joke" (35). When thinking of him, he seems like it would be loud and very deep. Carlson also seems like a little bit of a slob because he, "walks into the bunkhouse, his head still dripped with water from the scrubbing and dousing" (35).
