When Sergeant Major Morris says, "The first man had his three wishes, yes, was the reply. I don't know what the first two were, but the third was for death. That's how I got the paw" what can the reader infer?

The man was dying of a terminal disease

The paw made the man so miserable that he wished for death as a reprieve
