It would be sad but I think it would complete the Don's life circle perfectly, as hinted by the flashback given in "The Hobo Code". As summed up well in Mad Men Wiki.com:

"We flashback to Don as young "Dick." He's outside of a farmhouse digging as his father Archibald Whitman is working on a truck and Abigail Whitman is hanging laundry. A hobo approaches and asks if he could work to earn a meal. Abigail obliges and at dinner discovers that the hobo has especially good manners and actually hails from New York. That night, Dick brings him some blankets, and they begin to talk. Dick reveals that he's "a whore-child," and the hobo admits he's actually a traveler who gave up the conventional life to be free. He even shares the chalk codes, a symbol for good food or a nasty dog, that hobos write on the houses they pass. Though the hobo was promised a quarter for work by Abigail, Archie simply tells him to be on his way. After the hobo leaves, Dick sees that on the gate is a picture of a knife: a dishonest man lives here. "[/quote]

Oh this is very cool and very apt. Thanks for putting it in here. [/quote]
