Description: 

In his section, Jason goes "on back to the garage" to get his car before picking up his niece "standing by the drive" (187). The building almost certainly was built as the mansion's carriage house, and presumably is also where the "surrey" in which Mrs. Compson takes her weekly pilgrimages to the cemetery is also kept. In The Mansion it becomes the home of a member of the Snopes family.
