My reason for thinking this is: ‘He spent most of his day inside the pump house by the river,’ (page 4) and ‘On his weekends and holidays he would visit the forested areas near the sugar factory,’ (page 5).

To me he seemed like a person who found comfort in solitary from humans and favored spending time with animals.
