Biography: 

When Byron Snopes's children step off the train in Jefferson, Chick describes Byron's youngest as "A little one in a single garment down to its heels like a man's shirt made out of a flour- or meal-sack or maybe a scrap of an old tent" (378). He never indicates the sex of this child, perhaps because he cannot determine it himself - or perhaps to emphasize the strangeness of the four as a group.

Note: 
JBC: The gender here seems to be "indeterminate" rather than multiple.
