MARY ANNE PARAGON

Mary Anne is David and Dora's first servant. When she comes to them, they have references for her that say that she is indeed a paragon, just as her name says. (A paragon is a model of excellence.) But she is, in fact, a disaster: she steals from them and never keeps anything clean.

Mary Anne's disobedience totally freaks out both David and Dora because they are so young and new to family life that they don't know how to deal with a dishonest servant. This leads to one of their first fights, in which David asks Dora to toughen up and she cries and protests that she can't. 


MR. PASSNIDGE

Mr. Passnidge is Mr. Murdstone's friend. He meets Mr. Murdstone and Mr. Quinion at a Blunderstone pub to talk about Mrs. Copperfield and to laugh at David. For more on the joke of "Brooks of Sheffield," check out our thoughts on Mr. Quinion.
