Jefferson Hardware Store|McCaslin Hardware Store in The Hamlet (Location)

"Cain's," the store where Ab Snopes buys the milk separator for his wife, is a hardware or perhaps a department store. The alley behind it is where Ab tethers the unruly team of mules he traded for with Pat Stamper. ("Cain's" does not appear in any other Yoknapatawpha fiction; in "Fool for a Horse," the first text to tell this story, the coveted milk separator is for sale in McCaslin's hardware store.)
