How did Mr Joe Thompson prove to be an angel for Maggie
Answers
Answer:
In the story “An angel in disguise” Joe Thompson a wheelwright though rough in exterior had a heart which was tender in some places. He liked children and was pleased to have them come to his shop.
While the news of the lady’s death spreads throughout the village, everyone was eager to take John and Kate but none wanted a bed-ridden child. Hence, they all decided to send her to poorhouse.
As the dead went for its pauper grave everyone went out ignoring the pity glances of Maggie. At that moment, an odd terror arose upon Maggie’s face and she cried out for Mr. Thomson not to leave her alone.
At such point Mr. Thomson was the only one who lifted her from such miserable condition and paved a path for her new life. Hence, Mr. Thomson appeared to be “An Angel in Disguise” for Maggie to pick her up from such a miserable condition and providing shelter at his own house along with a mother.
