Biography:
In the hallway of the Negro brothel that Clarence takes them to, Virgil and Fonzo see "a drunk white man in greasy overalls" arguing with two Negro men (198). His overalls identify him as lower class, and tell us something about the socio-economic standing of the brothel's clientele, but no other details, about the man or the argument, are given in Sanctuary.
