Manuel

The gardener's helper on Judge Miller's estate. He kidnaps and sells Buck to fund his gambling habit.

Manuel had one besetting sin. He loved to play Chinese lottery. Also, in his gambling, he had one besetting weakness—faith in a system; and this made his damnation certain. For to play a system requires money, while the wages of a gardener's helper do not lap over the needs of a wife and numerous progeny.
