Sartoris Plantation Swimming Hole (Location Key)
Code:
543
Description:
On their return journey to Sartoris in "Retreat" Bayard notes when they "pass the hole where Ringo and I learned to swim" (32, 70). This is undoubtedly a deep place on Hurricane Creek, and it's tempting to identify it with the spot in the creek where about 75 years later Narcissa Sartoris tries to wash away her sexual transgression, but Bayard's swimming hole must be visible from the road, and Narcissa's act requires secrecy. (See the index entry for "Hurricane Creek and Bottom.")
