Which three parts of this excerpt from Nathaniel Hawthorne's novel The House of Seven Gables provide direct characterization?
Had he been told of a bad air, it might have moved him somewhat; but he was ready to encounter an evil spirit on his own ground.
with commonsense, as massive and hard as blocks of granite, fastened together by stern rigidity of purpose, as with iron clamps, he followed
out his original design, probably without so much as imagining an objection to it. On the score of delicacy, or any scrupulousness which a finer
sensibility might have taught him, the Colonel, like most of his breed and generation, was impenetrable. He therefore dug his cellar, and laid the
deep foundations of his mansion, on the square of earth whence Matthew Maule, forty years before, had first swept away the fallen leaves.

Transportation Strike Disrupts Westridge
Thousands unable to get to work or school

WESTRIDGE, Ohio — More than 600 transportation employees went on strike at midnight last night after the Westridge City Council rejected their demand for a 10% pay increase. The strike affects all bus and rail services throughout Westridge and the neighboring communities of Turlock, Smithfield, and Lowell Grove.

“We hoped we would not be forced to strike, but until our demands are met, we really have no choice,” said Wanda Thompson, a representative of the Transportation Employees Union. “We simply don’t get paid what we deserve.”

Members of the Westridge City Council see the situation differently. “Our employees already earn 6% more than the state average for similar transportation jobs,” said Raoul Cobian, President of the Westridge City Council.

Hopefully the two groups can come to an agreement soon and bring this unnecessary strike to an end.

Meagre, indeed, and cold, was the sympathy that a transgressor might look for, from such bystanders at the scaffold. On the other hand, a penalty which, in our days, would infer a degree of mocking infamy and ridicule, might then be invested with almost as stern a dignity as the punishment of death itself.
