Ike McCaslin's House (Location Key)

On a lot in Jefferson that was given to Ike McCaslin and his wife as a wedding present by her father, Ike builds this "cheap frame bungalow" (Go Down, Moses, 5). Later, the house is "kept for him by his dead wife's widowed niece and her children" (335). He lives in one room of this house for fifty weeks a year, but his true "home," of course, is the big woods (335).
