Description:
Bill Terrel, whom Monk meets in the penitentiary, was convicted for manslaughter in another part of Mississippi than Yoknapatawpha, though the name of the county isn't given. In rehearsing Terrel's crimes, the story mentions the "filling station . . . near a railroad" where the killing took place (58), the train tracks onto which he and an accomplice threw the body of the man he killed, and the "courtroom" where his children refused to support his (false) alibi (59).
