Description: 

On their way to the cemetery the Bundrens stop to borrow a shovel at a "little new house" from which Cash can hear music playing on a record player, or as he calls it, a "graphophone" (236). Anse goes into the house for the shovel, and also finds a woman there who the next day becomes "Mrs. Bundren," his new wife (261). We never learn her other names.
