Someone paid by his or her family to go away (and stay away).
"Harry Cram has never worked a day in his life," said Williams. "He's one of the first remittance men to come to the low country. His family sends his monthly checks from Philadelphia with the understanding he'll never go back there, and he leads a life of high style--traveling around the world, hunting, drinking, and playing polo. He's a wild man, completely charming."
John Berendt, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil (1994)
