Biography:
According to Mr. Compson's assumption, or perhaps his desire to reassure Nancy that her husband won't return, this is the new wife that Jesus has married in St Louis (295).
Note:
I treat this character as an alive-ghost. A category for "speculative" would be more fitting and would probably serve a purpose as we move into Faulkner's novels, where speculation becomes more and more prominent in the construction of narratives. (Cheryl)
