Summary:
One effect of the new plantation "aristocracy" is to make the office of jailor a patronage appointment, which is why the Farmer family comes to occupy part of the jail as their home. The "frail and workless" daughter of that family scratches her name, along with the date, on a window "facing the country town street" (180).
