Notes du joueur
Jeremiah Compson descend de chasseurs d'esclaves qui travaillaient à Ascension Plantation, à Rhodes. Il suit leurs traces dans le même commerce et en devient administrateur, épousant Betsy Compson et élevant leur fils, Rance. Après l'abolition de l'esclavage, Compson perd son poste. Le Central Union Railroad le renvoie plus tard à la suite de plaintes, et il se brouille avec Rance. En 1895, le juge Meredith Holden ordonne le transfert de Compson's Stead et de son contenu à la Bank of Rhodes, laissant Compson sans abri, à boire dans un campement près d'Eris Field.
Arthur Morgan trouve Compson assis devant la Rhodes Train Station, amer d'avoir perdu sa maison et son ancien statut. Compson demande à Arthur d'entrer dans Compson's Stead et d'y récupérer des biens qu'il juge précieux, dont son vieux pistolet, un registre et une montre à gousset. Arthur fouille la propriété abandonnée, où il découvre des preuves de l'ancien travail de Compson. Le registre répertorie des personnes réduites en esclavage comme des biens et décrit la fierté de Compson à les capturer.
Arthur apporte les effets au camp de Compson à Eris Field et le confronte à ce que révèle le registre. Compson s'emporte d'avoir perdu la vie et le travail auxquels il tenait, puis regarde Arthur jeter les effets dans le feu. Il s'effondre et pointe son vieux pistolet sur Arthur, mais l'arme négligée s'enraye. Compson reste au camp, sanglotant et maudissant Arthur, qui peut le laisser là ou le tuer.
Anecdotes
- ◆While referred to as a revolver in-game, Jeremiah's gun is actually a U.S. Johnson Model 1836, which was originally built as a flintlock pistol, but has been converted for use with a percussion cap (as evidenced by the brass block which replaced the original frisson pan on its right side).
- ◆However, the inventory icon for the pistol appears to be a 1848 Colt Dragoon Revolver, suggesting it was originally supposed to be a revolver of that model. This would also make more sense, as flintlock pistols were obsolete by the 1850s and 60s, and the Dragoon was a popular civilian firearm at this time.
- ◆Given the age of the weapon, it could have belonged to Jeremiah's father, and Jeremiah used it despite its age because of the weapons shortage in the Confederacy during the war.
- ◆Regardless of whether Compson is killed or spared, completing the mission increases the player's Honor.
- ◆The letter about Compson's discharge from the railroad company is dated April 2, 1870, which is the same date as his redundancy from the Ascension Plantation. Given that the date for the former doesn’t show when the "Read" prompt is used, it’s likely the date is incorrect and should be later. This is presumably a developer oversight.
- ◆Depending on whether the player kills Compson or not, Arthur's journal entry on his final encounter with him will vary slightly. The entry will read: "Went to see nice Mr Compson again." If the player spares Jeremiah the entry will continue: "Burned his valuable ledger right in front of his eyes." while if Jeremiah has been killed it ends: "Last thing he'll see."
- ◆After completing the mission the player can take Jeremiah's horse next to his tent and search its saddlebags without losing honor or the game counting the action as theft. Oddly enough though, the player can't stroke the horse as usual. Taming the horse only works by sitting on the horse's back and then stroking it.
- ◆Compson's name and story may be a reference to the Compson family, a fictional family featured in several stories by author William Faulkner. Both are described as once-prominent, slave-owning southern families who, around the turn of the century, were in steep decline.
