Description: 

While the story suggests this place, where Ab Snopes and his family live while sharecropping land near Harris' farm, is a squalid "paintless two-room house" (8), the story provides only one detail about it: when Mr. Harris goes there to complain to Snopes about his hog, the wire he gave Snopes some time earlier to strengthen the fences of the hog pen is "still rolled on the spool in his yard" (3-4). The Hamlet says that Harris (and presumably his tenant) live in Grenier County, which is on the southern side of the Yoknapatawpha River.
