Tom
A university professor who lives in Nollopton. He becomes a key figure in pursuing Enterprise Thirty-Two and he is able to come up with a 37-letter pangram. However, when he and his assistant, Tom, try to break into the university one day, they are interrogated by the L.E.B. and Mannheim lets an illegal letter slip. He refuses to be evicted from the island, and when he tries to run away, the police shoot and kill him. Mannheim’s daughter Paula is then sent to live with Ella, as she has no other relatives on the island.
