Answer 2

Helen knew Dr. Hale from the time she was eight, and she considered him a close and supportive friend. She writes of him that "He has filled the old skins of dogma with the new wine of love, and shown men what it is to believe, live and be free." As a minister, Dr. Hale broke with Calvinist tradition and taught about the promise and potential freedom of humans. Helen Keller wrote Hale many letters, and he returned his letters with his name written in Braille. He also sent her books and sea shells, and it was his idea, which Helen Keller's teacher Anne Sullivan adopted, that Helen study courses similar to those given at Radcliffe to prepare Keller for college.
