Biography:
The Mrs. Compson mentioned in "Retreat" is presumably the wife of General Compson (and so one of the grandmothers of Quentin, Caddy, Jason and Benjy in The Sound and the Fury). She never appears in the story, but is mentioned as the lady whom Granny asks to look after her flowers and from whom Granny is given a set of "rose cuttings" (23).
