Quarters at Compson Farm in "A Justice" (Location)

This icon represents the collection of cabins behind "the barns and smokehouses" (343) on the Compson farm. The narrator calls it "the quarters," a term that recalls the layout of a slave plantation (343). Sam Fathers lives there with the Negroes who labor on the farm. (In "The Old People" and in Go Down, Moses the "quarters" where Sam lives is part of two different plantations.)
