Peabody Lobby

"The Mississippi Delta begins in the lobby of the Peabody Hotel and ends on Catfish Row in Vicksburg... If you stand near its fountain in the middle of the lobby, where ducks waddle and turtles drowse, you will see everybody who is anybody in the Delta." David Cohn, God Shakes Creation, 1935.
