Summary: 

Ratliff's narrative focuses here upon Eula's perspective, upon her understanding of why Gavin Stevens spends so much time with her daughter. According to Eula, he is trying to get her to leave Jefferson so as to get away from Flem. Ratliff nestles this speculation, moreover, within the greater context of Flem's rise to prominence in Jefferson, briefly recapping a number of the events upon which he has already elaborated to show that Eula stays with Flem to protect her daughter.
