- Both entities refer to a female character named 'Charity' or 'Aunt Charity' who acts as a provisioner and giver of gifts to the crew of the Pequod. The source mentions her giving a tea-caddy (discarded by Stubb) and instructing Dough-Boy (the steward). The candidate mentions her giving a night-cap to Stubb and a Bible to the Steward, and being Stubb's sister-in-law. These roles and interactions with Stubb and the Steward (Dough-Boy) are highly consistent, indicating they are the same individual.
