Biography: 

This is one of the two deputies mentioned in "Monk." This deputy transports Monk to the state penitentiary by train. He may or may not be the same deputy who earlier arrested Monk. (As is also the case with county sheriffs, there are many unnamed deputy sheriffs in the Yoknapatawpha fictions. It's possible that Faulkner is imagining at least some of these deputies as recurring, especially when the stories are set at more or less the same historical moment. However, there is no way to be sure of that, so it is more accurate to represent each of these deputies as a separate character.)
