Catherine's third encounter, when Catherine directly
dictates what is spoken by Henry. After this meeting the two
become increasingly .....

Only a select few held onto remnants of the memory of flight. According to a legend in Hurston, the transgression, was eating salt. The Africans brought to Jamaica could all fly.
