Corinth, Mississippi in "Ambuscade" (Location)

Corinth is a town in extreme northeastern Mississippi, roughly 60-70 miles from the approximate location of Yoknapatawpha County, and 20 miles south of the Shiloh battlefield. After their loss at Shiloh, Confederate soldiers retreated to Corinth, but the city fell to Union forces at the end of May 1862 - which is what Loosh is referring to when he tells Bayard, after destroying the make-believe Vicksburg, "I tell you nother you aint know. . . . Corinth" (5). Bayard knows "that's not far" from Yoknapatawpha (3).
