The character of the Hatter, along with all other fictional creatures, first appears in the novel Lewis Carroll's 1865 "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland". In "Chapter Seven – The Mad Tea Party", while exploring Wonderland, Alice stumbles upon a Hatter drinking tea with a March Hare and Sonya. The hatter explains to Alice that they always drink tea because when he tried to sing for the short-tempered The Queen of Hearts, she sentenced him to death for "killing time", but he escaped decapitation. In retaliation, Time (the Hatter calls him "he") stops in relation to the Hatter, causing him to be stuck at 18:00 (or 18:00) forever. When Alice comes to the Mad Hatter's tea party, he constantly moves from place to place at the table, makes short personal remarks, asks unsolvable riddles and recites meaningless poems, which eventually forces Alice to leave. The Hatter reappears in "Chapter 11 – Who Stole the Cakes?" as a witness at the trial of the Jack of Hearts, where the Queen seems to recognize him as the singer she sentenced to death, and the King of Hearts also warns him not to be nervous, otherwise he will be "executed on the spot." Through the Looking Glass Edit The character also appears briefly in Carroll's 1871 book "Through the Mirror and what Alice Saw there", which is a continuation of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland". Under the name "Hutta", the Hatter got into trouble with the law again. However, he was not necessarily guilty, since The White Queen explained that subjects were often punished before they committed a crime, not after, and sometimes they did not commit it at all. He was also mentioned as one of the messengers of the White King, along with the March Hare, who appeared under the name "Haiga". An illustration by Sir John Tenniel depicts a Hutt drinking tea from a cup, as it was in the original novel. Alice does not comment on whether Hutta is the Hatter from her earlier dream.
