Biography:
Louvinia mentions "Unc Few Mitchell" to help Bayard and Ringo appreciate the performance Colonel Sartoris puts on for the Union troops who had ridden up to the plantation in search of him. According to her, he was "born loony" (34, 73). From the way she talks about him, it seems very likely that he is another enslaved person on the Sartoris plantation, but that is not explicitly said.
Note:
Note: I added this character for the "Retreat" chapter in The Unvanquished. He appears also in the Uncollected Stories version of that story (where he is mentioned), but I do not believe the data for "Retreat" lists him; someone may want to update that story to include this mentioned character.
