The Morgan Family as the Richest Family in Ruby
and went back to laying the fire. “Got a right, doesn‟t he” It‟s sort of his town, wouldn‟t you say? His and Steward‟s?” “I would not. They may act
like they own it, but they don‟t Morrison 115.” Based on their opinion, it is true that the Morgans have most of the assets
in Ruby and give loan for developing Ruby. It is not true that Ruby belongs to the Morgans only. Yet they cannot deny that the Morgan family has been the ruling
class family in Ruby. The Morgan family has power in political or religious area. There are many followers of the twins. Starting from the case of K.D and Arnette
Fleetwood until the “rebellion” of the young generation initiated by Reverend Misner and Anna Fleetwood, the Morgan family has power to get rid of all of
those problems. On the other side, Billie Delia, the daughter of Patricia Best does not get
the justice since she does not have any significant position in Ruby. Billie Delia has a case in Ruby but not as big as Arnette‟s case.
Although it was Arnette who had sex at fourteen with the groom, Billie Delia carried the burden. She quickly learned the cautionary look in the
eyes of girls whose mothers had warned them away from Billie Delia. In fact she was untouched Morrison 151.
This situation happens because Arnette‟s case involves K.D as the doer. In the other hand, K.D is the next generation of the Morgan family who will continue

Patricia Best really knows about this case and prefers not to talk since she feels that her effort will be useless. She has written the genealogy of Ruby
families and knows the fact that there is something wrong with it. PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
The generation had to be not only racially untampered with but free of adultery too. “God bless the pure and holy” indeed. … It wasn‟t Good‟s
brow to be feared. It was his own, their own. Is that why “Be the Furrow of His Brow” drove them crazy? But the bargain must have been broken or
changed, because there were only seven now. By whom? The Morgans, probably. They ran everythi
ng, controlled everything. …. In that case, she thought, everything that worries them must come from women. DEAR
GOD, SHE MURMURED. DEAR, DEAR GOD. I BURNED THE PAPERS Morrison 217.
Patricia Best thinks that she cannot do something since the Morgan family is the ruling family in Ruby. When she publishes that information to the public,
she is afraid that something bad will happen to her family. Billie Delia case has already broken her heart.
