Narrated
Date: 
Saturday, July 20, 1929 to Wednesday, July 31, 1929
Notes: 

TMT: Lorie and I decided that the children arrive in the July after the installation of Eula's medallion in October 1927: "One morning--it was summer again now, July," Chick says (376); Flem is "busy being a banker now and a deacon in the Baptist church, living in solitary widowerhood in the old De Spain house which he had remodeled into an ante-bellum Southern mansion" (377). We decided this was a movement forward in time rather than a flashback.

Summary: 

While "Jefferson" watches, Flem Snopes sends Byron Snopes's children back to El Paso (390). Miss Habersham makes arrangements with "Travellers' Aid" and the railroad to take care of them on the trip (390).
