Using PEED to write about character The reader gets the impression that Dolphus Raymond is isolated and separated from the rest of the white population of Maycomb, ‘in the far corner o f the square’ and ‘lives by himself’, even though he is white and obviously wealthy, ‘he owns all one side of the riverbank’ and ‘huge wedding’. He is an outcast from Maycomb society because ‘he’s got a coloured woman and all sorts of mixed chillun’ this was considered unacceptable at that time in Alabama. Therefore Dolphus lives and socialises with the black community ‘he likes em better’n he likes us’.
