Entry 14

Ending




Everyone leaves Jem's room, and Scout finally meeting Boo she comes to a conclusion that he is everything that she dreamed he be (can we please talk about how she is starting to sound creepy!?) They all go outside and the Sheriff tells Atticus that Jem did NOT murder Mr. Ewell. He knows who did it, Arthur Radley. But Heck says that he believes its a sin to put Arthur into the spotlight when he's just doing what a neighbor does and he's shy and all. Scout goes on to tell Atticus that putting Boo in jail is like killing a mocking bird. Attitcus thanks Boo for saving his children and Arthur asks for Scout to walk him home, and so she does...and he never sees him again.

Entry 11

The children were very concerned about Atticus about the threats he received from Robert Ewell, they suggested he carry a gun or some form of protection, but Atticus refused the notion. Robert was "just venting" and if he choice to beat up him over hitting Mayella, then that was fine by Atticus. Jem is still confused about the trial and why it ended the way it did, Tom was supposed to by freed, his father was so close to winning. Atticus tried to comfort him by saying that nothing was going to be done with Tom until later in the year, after to goes to the state court. Also that one person didn't find him guilty, a Cunningham. Scout finally started to understand something about Boo Radley, that he WANTS to stay inside, away from the prejudice and everything.
In now September, and Dill leaves tomorrow, so Jem decided it was time for him to learn how to swim. But since they would be swimming naked, Scout had to stay home. She instead spent time and the Missionary Society meeting with numerous other women around the neighborhood. At the get-to-together, Atticus comes home early, requesting Calpurnia in the kitchen. Tom was dead. He "tried to escape" to prison and after being shouted out to stop, the guards shot him seventeen times. Atticus wanted Calpurnia to go with him to tell Helen (Tom's wife) of the news. Aunt Alexandra, Miss Maudie, and Scout all hear everything and after a brief moment of silence and recovery, they returned to the party as if nothing had happened, no terrible news was told.

Entry 10?

They all walked home, Jem crying and saying how it just wasn't right. Calpurnia points out that in life there are always people who are born to do the bad things. Atticus goes to the sleep and so do the children; in the morning Atticus and the children, along with Calpurnia, find that the fellow Negroes of the town had gave them lots of food as a appreciation to what Atticus did for Tom. Atticus tells Calpurnia to take tell everybody thank you and its gladly accepted but not to do such a thing again, they are living in hard times. Pointing out the night before, that only children weep. Miss Mauldie invited the kids over for cake and Mr. Avery comes to and tells them the news. Mr. Ewell spat in Atticus's face and said," He get him if it took the rest of his life."

Entry 9 or something

Tom Robinson is brought to the witness stand, Atticus tells Tom to tell his story. Tom never raped the poor girl, he felt bad for her; being the only one in the house who worked, not even the children helped. He said that she call him in to do some tidying around the house for her, and he would gladly do it without the need of coin as a reward. One night, Mayella invited him in and jumped him, saying her kisses from her Daddy don't count as she might as well kiss a color man. Tom ran out the window not wanting to get into any trouble with the white folk, who would believe a black man over white? Dill feels sick and starts to cry so Scout takes him outside where they run into Dolphus Raymond. They learn he's been pretending to be drunk so other people feel better and that he basically enjoys it. The kids go back inside to hear about the results. They see Atticus stripping down some of his clothes(jacket, watch, and tie) which shock the kids. Toward 11 at night, the verdict comes down to "Guilty" in which was to be seen since you can't put a black man words to a white mans and expect to win.

Alluision: "all men are created equal"line that is in the declaration of independence, written by Thomas Jefferson

Characters: Dolphus Raymond

Entry 7 & 8?

The chapter begins with the court room case, Mr Gilmer, the prosecutor who calls the sheriff to the stand. So they recover the story:  Robert Ewell gets the sheriff, they both rush over to Mayella, see she's been beat up, and arrest Tom Robinson. End of that, Mr. Ewell comes up to the stand, after Atticus asks persistently why the sheriff didn't call a doctor, so they recover Robert's side of the story: hears screams, goes to the house, sees Tom Robinson on Mayella, Tom runs, Robert chases him but then goes back to the aid of his daughter. Atticus in return asked why no doctor? And even upsets Mr. Gilmer for asking Mr. Ewell if he can write. We discover Mr. Ewell and write with both hands but his domanite hand is left, and Mayella's body is bruised from the right side. This added up, Mr. Ewell could have done it just as easily, Tom couldn't have easily done it for his left hand is...injured from a series of unkindly events with a cotton gin. Mayella is called up next to the stand and her story doesn't add up in a few places. Atticus tries to dig up the truth from her tearing apart her story to see if she would slip even more. The next witness is called to the stands, the remaining witness: Tom Robinson.
