(1) Who was Joe Thompson ? What did he say about Maggie?
Answers
Answer:
Joe Thompson was a kind man and he assured Maggie by saying, “No, dear,” “You she'n't be left here alone.” Mr Thompson went to the bed, and stooping down he wrapped her with the gentleness almost of a woman, in the clean bedclothes which some neighbour had brought.
Answer:
Jo Thompson is a black blacksmith. He invites Maggie to his house and tells his wife that women's hearts can be quite difficult at times. He put Maggi in the small room in his home.
The wheelwright Joe Thompson felt sorry for Maggie, the disadvantaged child. Joe told the wife that it was a cruel thing to leave her so when everyone left the area and the sick youngster was left home alone.
Thompson, despite his gruff attitude, had some soft spots in his heart, unlike the others. He overcame his anxiety about his "vinegar-tempered wife" by taking Maggie to his house. Mr. Thompson was also told to be kind to Mrs. Thompson.
