QDear 100 Hour Board,

I went to BYU and received a BA in English. I currently work at a law office. In my job interview I was asked what my favorite class was an I randomly picked Victorican Literature and choose Charles Dickens as my favorite author. These were not true statements. I just blurted out an answer and stuck with it.

My boss just asked me a question about a Dickens character and I have no idea. Please help.

What Charles Dickens character curses people by putting their names into a drawer?

My boss also seemed to think that I knew of reputable websites that would have answers to questions like these. Any ideas? Thanks.

ADear K_T,

I am not sure why your boss would even ask you that. Very strange. Alright, all my searches have been coming up at a loss, but I finally found a character who may fit your description. Also, if this is the character, then your boss reads fairly obscure Dickens. In The Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain the character Mr. Redlaw curses people after he himself has been cursed. I found this on a site dedicated to Charles Dickens. Hopefully Mr. Redlaw is your man.
