Will Varner

Will Varner - "the justice of the peace and the chief officer of the [Frenchman's Bend] district" to whom Bookwright surrenders himself (90) - is a minor character in "Tomorrow" but a major character the larger Yoknapatawpha saga, appearing in eight other texts.

"Tomorrow", 90 (Event)

Unnamed Cattle Rancher

Only referred to, this is the rancher who "promptly identifies" the stolen cattle Buck Thorpe is driving along the road to Memphis (90).

Road to Dumfries and Memphis in "Tomorrow" (Location)

The "road to Memphis" on which Buck Thorpe is caught driving a small herd of stolen cattle (90) is probably the same road on which, about fifteen years earlier, Isham Quick and the Thorpe brothers ride to the Fentrys' farm, and also on which, two or three years later, Gavin and Chick drive from Pruitts' farm to Frenchman's Bend.

Road to Dumfries and Memphis

The road on which in Sanctuary Popeye drives Temple Drake to Memphis after raping her and killing Tommy at the Old Frenchman place doesn't go through Jefferson. It is possibly the road on which Faulkner locates "Suratt's" on his 1936 map of Yoknapatawpha, though as drawn that road wouldn't take Popeye all the way out of Yoknapatawpha.
