Hezekiah Varner was the captain commissioned (Supposedly by Warthrop's father in 1863-1864) to bring a cargo of Anthropophagi to America from West Africa on his ship Feronia. Varner was the sole survivor of the expedition, as his entire crew was killed by the escaped monsters. He survived by stabbing a kris knife into the eye of one of the escaped Anthropophagi and in its temporary blindness- he fled by lifeboat.

Upon his return, Varner was arrested and sentenced to life in Motley Hill Sanatorium in Dedham given his testimony- believed to be insane and unfound. He would remain there for twenty-three years, in atrocious and inhumane condition, until his death by assisted suicide from Pellinore Warthrop. Before his death, he recounted his story and memories of the voyage to Will Henry and Warthrop.
