Description: 

Deacon Rogers' place on the Square is more than a restaurant. Its "cluttered but clean front section" sells groceries (119), the restaurant tables and kitchen are in the back, and beyond them, behind a door, is the small back room where Young Bayard drinks toddies made from the moonshine whisky Rafe MacCallum provides, mixed with sugar and lemons supplied by Deacon. "Rogers'" is mentioned again in Faulkner's next novel, The Sound and the Fury. In five later texts there are restaurants on the Square under four different names; we assume that in Faulkner's imagination they are all the same 'Jefferson restaurant,' though it is of course possible that there is more than one restaurant on the Square.
