Mrs. Redmond Character Analysis

Mrs. Redmond is Mr. Redmond’s wife, and she lives with him in the house neighboring the Feehans. She often helps Mrs. Feehan by preparing food for Jack when he is at risk of starving. Because the Redmonds cannot afford dental care, Mrs. Redmond’s teeth are rotting, making her embarrassed to smile. Charlie insists the Redmonds use some of his winnings from the Ballarat Mile race to fix her teeth, as payment for all the Redmonds have done for his family.
