The chapter opens with a flashback to many years ago, when a young man named rob Guillory was working as a medical student at the medical school of the University of Virginia. He tells the story of his meeting with a young woman named Anna Jenkins, who was his student's cousin. She was a beautiful young woman with a bright future ahead of her, and he wanted her to marry him. She refused, saying that she wanted to be a housewife. The young man, however, refused to marry her because he did not want to be associated with a woman who did not have a good future for herself. The narrator tells us that the young woman, now called Annie, is the daughter of a man named John Locke, who believed in the power of the spirit to bring about change in the world.
