Biography: 

At twelve years of age (347), Henry Armstid's eldest daughter might be old enough to plow, Ratliff suggests. What is clear is that the daughter has already assumed the responsibility of one beyond her age, guarding over the "littlest ones" with an axe through the night (347). In "Spotted Horses," Faulkner provides additional information, including her name, Ina May.
