Summary: 

Although the details of the event are unclear, Ratliff is relating young Bayard's automobile accident in which his grandfather suffers a heart attack. In Flags in the Dust, old Bayard Sartoris suffers the heart attack; in this novel, however, Faulkner seems to omit old Bayard entirely, replacing him with Colonel John Sartoris whose death makes way for Manfred de Spain to assume the presidency of the Sartoris bank.
