Description: 

"Dry September" begins in Hawkshaw's barber shop in Jefferson, where the male patrons are recruited by McLendon into a lynch mob. Later, Hawkshaw runs from his shop, "swiftly up the street," and through a "darkened square" (175). It is implied, therefore, that the shop is in or near the courthouse square.
