Read this stanza from "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe. Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore-
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
''Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door-
Only this and nothing more."
How does what happens in this stanza propel the action in the poem?
It introduces the story and sets up the coming events.
It resolves the main conflict of the story.
It gives the speaker a reason to speak to the raven.
It establishes why Lenore has left the speaker alone.

because, you have to i : /

hope this ! =)

well stockyards mean a large yard containing pens and sheds, typically adjacent to a slaughterhouse, in which livestock is kept and sorted. and i'm assuming that by party you   mean a large group of people which does make sense because chicago is a very crowded place much like new york. stockyards tend to take up a lot of room due to needing the area for pens to keep animals in and the fact that stockyards are usually right by slaughterhouse where they process and distribute the product. so its much like a zoo but with some dead animal products close by.
