Biography:
The virtual owner of all of Frenchman's Bend, and Eula's father, Will Varner also "established" the Sartoris bank, along with Old Bayard and Major de Spain - according to this novel, or at least according to Ratliff in this novel (150). At the beginning of the story he is "a tall, gaunt, narrow-hipped heavily-moustached man" (18). Even in his old age he remains a spry and lusty man with a keen sense for business.
