Mr. Gilman was the principal of the Cambridge School joimed by Helen to prepare for the entry into Redcliffe College. He was very loving and sympathetic towards Helen. He knew Helen's limitations. In order to be of help to her pursuit of knowledge, he himself learnt the finger alphabet to give her instruction.
He was a good scholar and a broad minded person. He instructed Helen in English literature. He taught her "As You Like It", Burke's "Speech on Conciliation with America" and Macaulay's "Life of Samuel Johnson".
He was quite accommodating but rigid also. He let Helen's sister Mildred study in his school. He knew that Mildred's presence would be inspiring to Helen.
He wanted Helen to spend three years more instead of two to complete her studies.
