uncle buck
the year is about 1859. "cass" lives with his grand-uncles theophilus and amodeus mccaslin, called "uncle buck" and "uncle buddy" respectively by most of the characters in the book. the story opens with the news that tomey's turl, a slave on the mccaslin plantation, has run away. but this is not the first time this has happened and uncle buck and buddy know where he always goes, to hubert beauchamp's neighboring plantation to see his love, a slave girl named tennie. beauchamp himself has an unmarried sister, sophonsiba, who seems romantically interested in buck. forced to stay the night to look for tomey's turl, buck and cass accidentally enter sophonsiba's room, thinking it to be their room. this situation is exploited by hubert who tries to pressure buck into marrying sophonsiba. buck does not agree to hubert's exploitive interpretation of events. buck, buddy and hubert settle both their situation and that of tomey's turl by tying them to the outcome of a poker match. if buck loses, he is to marry sophonsiba and must agree to buy the slave girl tennie so turl will stop running away to see her. buck loses, but coaxes hubert into allowing another game, hubert against buddy, to determine the marriage and property issues. the stakes are changed many times, but in the end buddy wins and the mccaslins take tennie for free.
