Biography: 

Ratliff imagines two dogs talking about "Eck Grier" and "Bookright" trading work for a "fyce," a small dog (137). Faulkner had told that story in "Shingles for the Lord" (1943), but there Grier's first name is Res, and Bookwright's name is spelled with a "w." (Faulkner may have confused Res Grier with another inhabitant of Frenchman's Bend: Eck Snopes.)
