Chapter 10-Scout

           Sometimes I get embarrassed of Daddy. Not because of what he dies or who he is but his age. Hes a lot older than the other fathers in our town. Also he doesn't do what most of the other fathers do. Like hunting or farming or fishing, he just stays at home and reads.

          Today Atticus did something incredible. Today though there was a rabid dog walking towards the Finch's house. So my dad got his gun and was quite far away. He took a quick aim and shot the dog once. The dog fell down and died right there, no need for another bullet. I don't think any of the other dads could be as good a shot.

Chapter 9-Scout

          Today during school I almost beat a kid up for making fun of my dad. Atticus has recently taken a case for a black person. Now everyone in town has gone against him and are making fun of him. Daddy says that we should stand up for the innocent though. So if he thinks the colored man is innocent than so do I.

          Today we went to visit aunt Alexandra. When we got there I had the pleasure of meeting Francis. Also while putting up with him I'm dealing with aunt Alexandra who is yelling at me for not dressing like a proper woman. Then Francis was making fun of Dill and called Atticus a "N***** Lover." after that I couldnt hold myself back. I started beating the crap out of him, and he told Alexandra and her husband and they smacked me.

Chapter 8-Scout

        Today was a great day. We got snow for the first time in awhile. even though it wasn't a lot of snow it was still enough to get out of school. I played with Jem and we made a snowman of Mr.Avery. He's a grumpy old man who lives down the street from us. It looked so much like Mr.Avery though so Atticus said we had to disguise it. 

          The next day though something really sad happened though. Ms.Maudies house burned down and everyone came to help. We couldn't save all of the stuff inside of the house or the house itself. In all the confusion someone draped a blanket over me. I didn't know who did it until I was talking to Atticus. Then Jem told me it as Boo Radley, after that I almost threw up.

Chapter 7-Scout

          Today me and Jem were walking home and stumbled on the tree hole again. Today though we found a ball of grey twine. Thinking it was someones, we left it there. Only to come back 6 days later and find it still there we took it. We found soap carvings in there the next day as well. They resembled us alot so we took them.

          During the next couple of days we found more stuff in the tree hole. We found chewing gum, a spelling bee medal, and an old pocket watch. Sadly though when we came back the next day it was filled with cement. We asked why and Nathan said the tree was dying. Atticus said the tree was perfectly fine though.

Chapter 4-Scout

          On our way home today with Jem, we stumbled upon shinny objects in a tree. When we came closer they looked like pennies. When we removed them they were extremely old and shinny pennies with pictures of Native Indians. They looked extremely valuable and Jem said they were used for good luck. Although we decided to ask around if someone had left it there, we had a suspicion of Boo putting it there.

         

         Another thing that we did today was play a game. We played the Boo Radley game. Its where we pretend we're the Radley family and act. Daddy doesnt like it though, he thinks its disrespectful. Also we came up with a way to change the name if he does catch us.
