Notes: 

T.P. is told to take Benjy out of the house to sleep in the Gibson Cabin. Benjy can smell Mr. Compson.

They are by the ditch where Nancy was shot and undressed by the buzzards. We'll have to pick a place for this. It is somewhere near the Branch.

The text attached to this does not appear correct. We might need to check into this later.

Summary: 

Sensing it somehow, perhaps by his sense of smell, Benjy wakes up in the middle of the night when his father dies. T.P. dresses him and takes him out of the house to the cabin where the Gibsons live.
