Biography:
Previously a saw mill engineer, Harker is now the engineer in the Jefferson power plant. He enjoys making sarcastic remarks about the principal actors in the maneuverings around the embezzled brass fittings: Tom Tom Bird, Tomey's Turl Beauchamp, and Flem Snopes. For example, Harker says, "'If Turl ever is unlucky enough to get married he would still have to climb in his own back window or he wouldn't even know what he come after" (24). He does, however, actively intervene when he helps the two black firemen recognize their real antagonist.
