No he did not. Rumor started to cause confusion. Coe is actually quite the racist he seems to be.

no but i hope so

honest, brave, and determined
In the book "Dovey Coe" by Frances O'Roark Dowell, the story is set in the fictional town of Indian Creek, North Carolina. Dovey Coe and her family live in a small house near the town center, surrounded by farmland and forests. The nearby presence of the creek and the mountains contributes to the rural and secluded atmosphere of the story.
A young girl named Dovey Coe is one to always say what she is thinking and this time, it has gotten her in some trouble. A young man named Parnell Caraway is in love with Dovey's sister and she's not happy about it, but she wouldn't take it to murder, would she? When the police come Dovey is found over Parnell's dead body, did she do it, or can she prove her innocence?
Parnell Caraway is a cruel man who has his heart set on Dovey's pretty sister, Caroline. He hates Dovey and absolutely despises her deaf brother Amos. One day when Dovey falls unconscious, she wakes up to find him murdered. The rest of the book is Dovey's murder trial. He, therefore, is an excruciatingly important part of the book. I hope I helped and didn't give away too much!!
