Jefferson Hardware Store|McCaslin Hardware Store in The Reivers (Location)

Jefferson's hardware store appears in five other texts. In Faulkner's first two novels it is owned by Watts and then by Earl. In the short story "Fool about a Horse" and Faulkner's last three novels, which includes this one, it belongs to Isaac McCaslin, who in Go Down, Moses is identified instead as a carpenter. Here Boon shoots at Ludus in front of "Isaac McCaslin's hardware store" (14), missing him but wounding a Negro girl and "shattering" the store window. Ike lives "in a single room over his hardware store" (55).
