Dolls, Mr is the drunken father of Jenny Wren whom she refers to as her 'bad child' in Our Mutual Friend. Betsy (alias Bet), Prostitute and friend of Nancy. Goes mad after identifying Nancy's body in Oliver Twist. Agnes is the perfect female character. She seems to have no faults and lives up to a higher moral code than all of the men that surround her. Meanwhile, David is full of faults. He is incapable of recognizing how compatible he and Agnes are together, at first mistaking her goodness and sacrifices for sisterhood rather than something that could turn into the romantic partnership of marriage. This causes his aunt, Betsey Trotwood, to remark that he is “Blind. blind!” (504). He instead chases after Dora, a pretty girl without much substance, but who is angelic in her standards of beauty and innocence. Even though it is clear that David and Dora re not compatible they marry and share a relationship that seems mostly based on his appreciation for her beauty. Despite the fact that Dora does nothing to help build David into the man he is capable of being, she is still viewed as an angelic figure because she does nothing sinful. Jeddler, Martha Maiden sister of Dr Jeddler. The doctor's younger daughter, Marion, runs away and secretly lives with Martha in The Battle of Life. Stagg Blind member of the 'Prentice Knights with Simon Tappertit. He joins Barnaby Rudge Sr in trying to extort money from Mary Rudge.

Vladimir Nabokov called him "the best and kindest man ever to appear in a novel". [13] A wealthy man, he helps most of the other characters out of a mix of disinterested goodness and guilt at the mischief and human misery caused by Jarndyce and Jarndyce, which he calls "the family curse". He falls in love with Esther and wishes to marry her, but gives her up because she is in love with Dr Woodcourt. This shows Ms. Havisham's anguish over losing Estella, the only relationship which she actively participated after being jilted by her lover. It is Estella whom she let into her deep and crooked heart and it is through Estella and Pip that she regains some human emotions like regret. In Chapter 44, when Pip confesses to Estella and gets his heart broken, Ms. Havisham's reactions are short and abrupt but it showcases her remorse and the sense of guilt at what she has done. She identifies with Pip and realises that Pip is the same as her now- with a broken heart, and it is all because of her. Though her plans succeeded, she does not derive any pleasure or comfort from it. Atkinson, Paul (1990). The Ethnographic Imagination: Textual Constructions of Reality. London: Routledge. p. 48.
