Block 3 So Boy willie, Lymon, Doaker and Wining Boy all served time in Prison. I wonder if this has to do something with a subject or theme. Must read on to find out.
A prison with a gas chamber for execution? Yikes! That most a have a really rough staying there for the boys in this play. Sounds like a pretty rough and scary place!

That's kind of ironic that the plantation was turned into a prison, what with all the slaves that were prisoners there.

i didn't think farms with slaves would have prisons!
Mandi Carlson
scary stuff!!!!
i think that it has an importance to the book.....it shows more of how they were unfairly treated.

I think the poem or quatation on the page was quite interesting.
Oh listen you men, I don't mean no harm
If you wanna do good, you better stay off old Parchman Farm
We got to work in the mornin', just at dawn of day
Just at the settin' of the sun, that's when the work is done
Bukka White, "Parchman Farm Blues"
But I never thought farms had prisons.
