Back Lanes of Frenchman's Bend (Location Key)

In The Hamlet the back route Ratliff and his fellow treasure-seekers take from Bookwright's to the Old Frenchman's place takes them down "lanes" that run "pale between the broad spread of fields" past "scattered and remote homesteads" and then through "tunnels of trees" (373). Apparently he drives this route in the other direction later, on his way to meet Flem Snopes and buy the Old Frenchman's.
