Description: 

Cotton is the principal crop raised on the Edmonds' place, and the route of the story's narrative goes through two of the fields in which it is grown. Edmonds notes that his tenants are "laid by" at the time of the story, which means they have already planted the cotton (231). This is the second field mentioned, on the other side of the road from the rest of the plantation.
