Mr. Bumble is the beadle of the parish, a fat and choleric man who takes great joy in abusing those below him, and is often offended by their impositions on him.

dward is Oliver’s half-brother, who goes by the alias Monks for most of the novel. He offers to pay Fagin to corrupt Oliver, so that he may have Oliver’s inheritance. He is in his late twenties, but haggard in appearance, with extremely deep set eyes, and suffers from fits.
