Description: 

Sheriff Hoke Hampton is "a countryman" who owns the house and farm in the county where he was born, but during his terms in office he lives in town in a rented house (105). Judging by the details the narrative provides, it is a modest residence. The dining room is "linoleum-floored," and its furniture "rented Grand Rapids mission"; cooking is done on a woodstove in the kitchen (106).
