"A Justice" takes place when Quentin Compson is twelve. Roskus drives the carriage that takes him, Grandfather, Caddy and Jason on their weekly drives to the white family's farm four miles from their house. Quentin sits "in front with Roskus," and on the way "Grandfather and Roskus would talk," but readers aren't given access to what Roskus says, or what Quentin thinks about him (360). When the carriage leaves the farm, the narrative notes that "the horses move at once," but makes no mention of the man who is presumably still driving them (360).
