Uncle Dick Bolivar's Place (Location Key)

Code: 
819
Description: 

In "Lizards in Jamshyd's Courtyard," and again when Faulkner re-tells the story of the trick Flem Snopes plays on V.K. Ratliff and his partners in The Hamlet, Uncle Dick Bolivar is a very old man who lives at some distance from Frenchman's Bend in a "mud-daubed hut in the river bottom five or six miles from any road" (144, 381). Since Ratliff says he is going "up the bottom" to fetch Uncle Dick, we are assuming he lives upriver, or east, of Yoknapatawpha (378).
