The Squatter at Work: Pop Jackson Fights a Railroad

Pop Jackson squats on land his family calls home as a railroad crew arrives to lay track. He confronts them, is jailed for three months, then jailed again after a later clash. He escapes, returns to the cabin, and faces a passing train that finally ends his stand. His family contemplates his stubborn defiance and its consequences.
