Biography: 

In "Centaur in Brass" the Jefferson mayor Hoxey who is reportedly having an affair with Mrs. Flem Snopes is named Hoxey; according to town gossip, this account's for "her husband's rise in Hoxey's administration" (151). Hoxey is described the town's "lone rich middle-aged bachelor" and "a graduate of Yale" (151). His relationship with Mrs. Snopes clearly prefigures Eula Snopes' and Mayor Manfred de Spain's affair in the last two volumes of the Snopes trilogy.
