Question

write a brief character sketch of MR. IRONS..

Answer 1

Mr. Iron, a good Latin scholar, was a neighbor of Mr. William Wade whom Helen and Miss Sullivan had been visiting in Hutton, Pennsylvania. He was as a man of rare, sweet nature and of wide experience.  He proved to be very helpful to Helen as he taught her Latin grammar principally. He often helped her in arithmetic, which she found as troublesome as it was uninteresting. He also read Tennyson’s ‘In Memoriam.’ Mr. Irons taught Helen how to know an author and recognize his style.
