Biography:
The county Sheriff is a man with "vigorous untidy iron-gray hair and his gray eyes were round and shiny like a little boy's" (301-02). Jason goes to see him to report that his niece, Miss Quentin, robbed him. The sheriff handles Jason's anger in a measured manner, asking that Jason discuss the situation on the porch: "The sheriff watched him steadily with his cold shiny eyes" (303). He reminds Jason that he doesn't have proof and questions why Jason keeps so much money in the house. Much to Jason's outrage, the sheriff ultimately concludes "'that's not any of my business'" and refuses to do anything (302).
