The first person to try to buy Oliver Twist in Charles Dickens' novel is Mr. Bumble, the Beadle. He seeks to purchase Oliver for the workhouse where he is an orphan, intending to exploit him for labor. Bumble's interest in Oliver reflects the broader themes of exploitation and the harsh treatment of the poor in Victorian society.
