Biography: 

Flem Snopes watches "clients coming and going to leave their money or draw it out" (146). Many of these customers are alarmed when they find out Flem "had withdrawn his own money from the bank of which he himself was vice president and put it somewhere else" (274). Some of the bank's patrons inform Wallstreet Panic's wife that despite her orders he has asked Flem Snopes for a loan to save his business. And presumably one of these people is the "somebody" who, according to Charles, "claimed to have seen Mr Snopes himself, unchanged too, unhurried and unalarmed, . . . going about his inscrutable noncommunicable affairs" during the crisis over the bank's presidency (323-24). In class they range from the old county families with "ponderable deposits" in the bank (293) to "one-gallused share-croppers" whose typical net worth is a single bale of cotton (291).
