Who is Doctor Condor from Beware of Pity and what is their importance?

Doctor Condor's character plays the foil for Hofmiller, in that Doctor Condor is the opposite of the protagonist. He is short, stout, and has few manners. Condor feels pity for Edith, and for others; however, his pity causes him to do good in the world rather than to do bad. Whereas Hofmiller's pity causes him to lie and deceive in an effort to simply stop his own anguish, Condor's pity allows him to treat the sick and to give of himself endlessly and tirelessly. He gives freely of himself and is a constant reminder that care, love, and compassion are all good, provided they are done without selfishness. Condor's treatment of his wife is a direct contrast to Hofmiller's treatment of Edith, which further helps illustrate Hofmiller's selfishness. Further, Condor's treatment of Hofmiller himself shows him to be a kind individual who does not judge others.
