Considering the references to houses, and that Wolfe originally wanted
to use the name "hushog" (I don't know who pointed that out), meaning
house-pig, I'd say that case is nailed shut. And it strengthens your
idea that What was left of Horn went into Babbie, and possibly even my
idea that 2 other versions of Horn went into Babbie as well to fulfill
the prophecy. Why invent a "house" and only use it once?
