Sartoris Plantation Uncle Henry's Cabin (Location Key)

Code: 
112
Description: 

The possum hunting episode in Flags in the Dust begins "back of Unc' Henry's," to quote Caspey (292). Readers see Henry's dog, but not Henry, but his place seems to be a cabin set at least somewhat away from the other cabins around the Sartoris plantation house. It is close enough to cultivated land for a cotton house to be nearby, but perhaps even closer to the woods. Although The Unvanquished refers to "the quarters" behind the Sartoris mansion (142), and at one time at least there must have been many cabins on the plantation, besides the two where the Strothers - the white family's house servants - live, "Unc' Henry's" is the only one ever mentioned.
