A simple-minded but kind-hearted young man who works as a boy-of-all-work at the Travellers' Rest in Hambry. After Cuthbert saves his life from Depape, Sheemie becomes utterly devoted to the boys, especially Cuthbert. He serves as a go-between for Roland and Susan and helps free the boys from jail on Reaping Night. Despite his limited intelligence, he shows real courage and discretion. His mother was Dolores Sheemer, and the bartender Stanley Ruiz may be his father.
