Entry 2

Chapter 5:

Dill and Jem start spending more time together, we learn that Dill even proposed to Scout saying she was the only one for him, they exclude Scout from their conversations and at most times because of this Scout and Miss Maudie create a deep friendship bond. Somehow Jem and Dill come up with this clever idea of sticking a note to a fishing pole and placing it on Arthur's window. Scout got caught up in it guarding one side of the street and Dill ringing a bell if someone comes on a different street. Atticus shows up and others the kids and tells them NOT to do that again. Jem finally ends the chapter by saying he once wanted to become a lawyer but not anymore.
