Unnamed Suitors of Eula Varner

Armstid Children

The three younger, unnamed Armstid children are left at home with their 12-year-old sister, Ina May, during the nights Mrs. Armstid spends at Mrs. Littlejohn's place taking care of their father.

Vernon Tull's Three Daughters

Vernon Tull's "three daughters" are in the wagon with him when they are caught on the bridge during the escape of the wild ponies (177). They are described as a unit: "all sitting in chairs in the wagon bed, and all asleep" until one of the ponies rides over them, then they are "womenfolks' legs and white drawers shining in the moonlight" (176). (Two of Vernon's daughters, Eula and Kate, appear as individual characters in As I Lay Dying.)
