Chapter 11, The Blue Cart introduces Eddoes, one of the author's friends. He was something of an aristocrat on Miguel Street. He was a very clean scavenger, who helped keep the streets clean (basically a garbage man) but he got paid good money. He would make even more money from selling rich people's trash. He was a very useful vendor of goods, often providing great goods and great prices. Eddoes was usually in good spirits until a woman told him that she was carrying his baby. She then used the baby to extract money from him, which caused him to lose his spirit. After a year or so, the baby's mother brought his daughter to him to stay. Eddoes called her Pleasure and she became the baby of Miguel Street, cared for by everyone. Due to Pleasure, Eddoes's spirit returned.
