please provide me the character sketch of mr. heelas?????

Mr. Heelas is a very selfish man. He ditched Kemp in his time of need. He had a seeing then believing kind of attitude. He didn't help Dr. Kemp and denied him to enter in his house. He was a self centered man. In the Kemp episode, perhaps he was trying to save his own family, but it was definitely not good, morally.

In the very first line, replace that *is with *was. I always mess up with tenses.

Mr Heelas was the next door neighbour of Dr Kemp. He was one of the sturdy minority who refused to believe in the story of the Invisible Man and regarded it as a nonsense even though his wife agreed to it. When it was proclaimed that everyone should be on high alert, he insisted upon walking about his garden as if nothing had happened. This showed his casual views towards the rumours and his ‘seeing then believing‘ attitude.
However, he came about as coward who would not open his door to help his neighbour in distress. Griffin was after Dr Kemp. When Mr Heelas woke up and saw his neighbour’s house, he at once realised that the Invisible Man was after him. Dr Kemp came running to him, but he denied him entry. Perhaps, he was trying to save his family, but this was not a moral act...!!

Mr. Heelas was a neighbour of Doctor Kemp. He didn't believe in the Invisible man
but his wife did believe in the Invisible man. He insisted upon walking about his garden
just as if nothing was the matter, and he went to sleep in the afternoon. He slept through
the smashing of the windows, and then woke up suddenly with a curious persuasion of
something wrong. He looked across at Kemp's house, rubbed his eyes and looked
again. he said he was damned, but still the strange thing was visible. The house looked
as though it had been deserted for weeks- after a violent riot. Every window was
broken, and every window, save those of the belvedere study, was blinded by the 
internal shutters. When he saw that the shutters of the Kemp's drawing-room window
were flung open violently, and the housemaid in her outdoor hat and garments,
appeared struggling in a frantic manner to throw up the sash.
He saw the house maid and Doctor Kemp helping her out of the window Then Mr.
Heelas saw Doctor Kemp jump from the window and running along the garden and
towards Mr. Heelas house. Then he realised that there is an Invisible Man who is
running after Doctor Kemp. He ordered his cook and servants to lock all the doors and
shut all the windows as the Invisible Man running after him and might enter his house
along with Doctor Kemp.
