Description: 

According to Ikkemotubbe, "My house is not very much house" (369). When David Hogganbeck "walks home" with him, we learn that it is "across the Plantation" from the landing (368), and also that it contains a "bed" big enough for the two men to share (369). ('Later,' if we are measuring time by Ikkemotubbe's life, and 'earlier,' if we locate "A Courtship" in the chronological context of Faulkner's career, Ikkemotubbe will have "very much house" as the chief of the tribe in fictions like "Red Leaves.")
