Biography:
The sidewalk outside the courthouse is "crowded" with "tenants from their own [i.e. Edmonds'] farm and from other farms along the creek" who have come to town in "battered and limping trucks and sedans" to see Lucas, Nat and George go inside (221). The narrative notes that these black people are "without hope of getting into the courtroom itself" (221), though it does not explain why.
