Within a few months Doodle had learned to walk well and his go-cart was put up in the barn loft (it's still there) beside his little mahogany coffin. Now, when we roamed off together, resting often, we never turned back until our destination had been reached, and to help pass the time, we took up lying. From the beginning Doodle was a terrible liar and he got me in the habit.

How does this passage foreshadow Doodle’s death?

by describing Doodle’s little mahogany coffin
by suggesting that only the go-cart is still up in the barn loft, not the coffin
by indicating that Doodle frequently needs to rest and has trouble reaching his destination
