Description: 

Gavin Stevens refers to the store that Samuel Worsham Beauchamp is caught breaking into as "Rouncewell's" (259). It is located in Jefferson (258), but exactly where is not specified. And while in several of the fictions the Rouncewells run a boarding house in Jefferson, and in The Town Mrs. Rouncewell is the town's florist, none of that helps us figure out what is sold in the store here. It's not likely to be flowers.
