Description:
Wesley Pritchel builds this house, "two miles from his own," for his daughter Ellie after she marries Joel Flint. It is described as near "the little cross-roads hamlet" (114) that, according to the story, is in a "remote country region" that is "twenty-odd miles" from Jefferson (113). The hamlet itself is never named, but the distance and description fits Faulkner's Frenchman's Bend, the hamlet in the novel of that name and a frequent setting for his fictions as a group.
