Biography:
Spoade is a senior at Harvard University from South Carolina. He jokingly calls Shreve Quentin's "husband" (78). According to Quentin, Spoade has "five names, including that of a present English ducal house" (91-92), but never thinks of him except as "Spoade." He lives up to the image of a southern aristocrat in a number of ways besides his name, including the fact that he goes to chapel every day in dishabille. Quentin can tell it's nearly noon when he sees that Spoade has put his shirt on (95).
