Ludus works as a driver for the livery stable, but is well known for his "tomcatting" - having affairs with local black women, single and married (13). When he "borry"s a team and wagon from the stable overnight to visit "a new girl" six miles out of town, he gets into trouble with Boon (10). (Faulkner had told this story before, in "Lion" and Go Down, Moses; there the man Boon shoots is unnamed.)
