To inform passengers on the train back from Memphis about the exploits of Lion and Old Ben, the drunken Boon Hogganbeck "buttonholes" them, and these passengers did not "dare to act as if they did not want to listen" (188). (Under the Jim Crow laws, railroad cars were racially segregated, so all these passengers would have been white.)
