(from John Bright's speech in the House of Commons, 1844) Read the passage carefully and then answer the question.

I have in my hand two publications; one is The Adventures of William Dodd the Factory Cripple and the other is entitled The Factory System - both books have gone forth to the public under the sanction of the noble Lord Ashley. I do not wish to go into the particulars of the character of this man, for it is not necessary to my case, but I can demonstrate, that his books and statements are wholly unworthy of credit. Dodd states that from the hardships he endured in a factory, he was "done up" at the age of thirty-two, whereas I can prove that he was treated with uniform kindness, which he repaid by gross immorality of conduct, and for which he was discharged from his employment.

How does the speaker seem to feel about William Dodd?
He feels that William Dodd is a liar who should be questioned.
He feels that William Dodd is a good person who would never lie.
He feels that William Dodd is a dangerous and unstable individual.
He feels that William Dodd is a man who needs help from others.
