Jane Eyre
deceitful. During an inspection, Jane accidentally breaks her slate, and Mr. Brocklehurst, the
self-righteous clergyman who runs the school, brands her as a liar and shames her before the
entire assembly.
Jane is comforted by her friend, Helen Burns. Miss Temple, a caring teacher, facilitates Jane's
self-defense and writes to Mr. Lloyd whose reply agrees with Jane's. Ultimately, Jane is
publicly cleared of Mr. Brocklehurst's accusations.
Jane mistakes Mr. Rochester for a Gytrash.
While the Brocklehurst family lives in luxury, the eighty pupils are subjected to cold rooms,
poor meals, and thin clothing. Many students fall ill when a typhus epidemic strikes. Jane's
friend Helen dies of consumption in Jane's arms.
When Mr. Brocklehurst's neglect and dishonesty are laid bare, several benefactors erect a new
building and conditions at the school improve dramatically.
