Biography:
Luster calls this stranger Miss Quentin's "beau" (46). He is the last in an indeterminate number of young men whom she sneaks out of her room at night to spend time with. He works for the traveling show that is playing for two nights in Jefferson, though he won't tell Luster exactly what he does in it. Both Benjy and Jason are struck by the "red tie" he wears (49, 232). Jason spends part of his section chasing after this man and his niece as they drive out into the country in a Ford. In the last section Jason pursues them again after Quentin runs away with the man, who is fired from the show when he tries to bring Quentin along with the troupe.
