Description: 

The Merchants' and Farmers' Bank, the official name of the bank that was founded by Colonel Sartoris' son Bayard Sartoris, appears in many of the Yoknapatawpha fictions. In this early novel it is described as a defunct institution that has been torn down. Its papers and "junk" have been stored in the old opera house in Jefferson. (In the later novels in the Snopes trilogy, however, it is still very much in business decades after the events of this novel.)
