It was the wilderness Aunt Gastonia pray about when she pray agin it so loud.
I reckon we left North Carolina after ’bout a half hour, or two half hours, ’case the road done change from black to brown and on each side of it I didn’t get to see no more houses but jess the wilderness. I guess it was jess great big old woods without no houses, and dark? and black? and jess as solemn? It was the wilderness Aunt Gastonia pray about when she pray agin it so loud.
