Description: 

When Nancy is afraid to go to her own cabin, Dilsey tells her to "go down to the cabin"; "Frony will fix you a pallet and I'll be there soon" (298). The cabin Dilsey means is where she lives in this story with her children Frony, T.P. and Versh. It is undoubtedly the same cabin as the one behind the Compsons' big house in The Sound and the Fury.
