Description: 

Somewhere between Lake Cormorant and Memphis, Mink stops at Beth Holcomb's to do yard-work. It's four miles from Brother Goodyhay's house, which is "one the edge of Memphis" (295). Adjacent to "a vacant lot," Holcomb's "small house" sits in "a small untidy yard" with "dead clematis vines" (291). The "minuscule front gallery" of the structure leads in to a sparsely furnished kitchen with "stove, sink, refrigerator, a table and chair" (292).
