Summary:
The narrative evokes the "successive overlapping generations" of men and women and children who have lived in Jefferson, and the way their "gestures of passion and hope and travail and endurance" are preserved (archaeologically) in the pictures and words scrawled by prisoners on the walls of the jail's "bullpen and cell" (168).
