Here’s a start. George may be the only one of the three friends who holds a “real” job. He works at a bank six days a week. (Narrator J. pokes fun and claims that all George does there is sleep.)

But he’s probably the best cook on the boat. He knows what his skills are. And he’s a good and devoted friend to J. and Harris.

For more details to include in your sketch, see George’s stopped watch story in Chapter XI; his Irish stew and banjo stories in Chapter XIV; the fishy story in Chapter XVII; and the tale of George and J. once getting caught in a lock on the river in Chapter XVIII.
