Chapter 16-Part 2

       So the trial began and lots of people were showing up to see the outcome. When we started going we passed Miss Maudie and she didn't seem like she was going. We asked her why and she said it was like going to a Roman Carnival. I didn't get the reference but we continued on our way. In order to avoid Atticus we waited for everyone to enter, which didn't leave any seats left. Reverend Sykes was able to offer us seats in the colored section though, we didn't mind.


       The trial began and Judge Taylor was the one who started the whole thing. He's not a very strict man when it came to the formal. He ran it in a very informal fashion and seemed bored more or less of the time. I swore at one point he was going to fall asleep.
