Kingston (Location Key)

When Faulkner created "Kingston" in "That Will Be Fine" (1935) he might have been thinking of "Kinston," the fictional town where Horace Benbow lives in Sanctuary (1931). Kingston is where Rodney catches the "fast train to Memphis" (279). Trains travel directly between Jefferson and Mottstown (like the one that Rosie takes, 276), but to travel from either town to Memphis one has to switch trains, which explains why Rodney "hires a rig" in Mottstown to travel to "the main [railroad] line" that runs through Kingston (279). (There is a real Kingston in Mississippi, but it is in the southwest corner of the state, hundreds of miles out of the Rodney's way.)
