Second Cotton Field at Edmonds Place (Location Key)

Cotton is the principal crop raised on the Edmonds' place, and the narrative in "Gold Is Not Always" goes through two of the fields in which it is grown. Edmonds notes that his tenants are "laid by" at the time of the story, which means they have already planted the cotton (231). This is the second field mentioned, on the other side of the road from the rest of the plantation.
