ATTICUS

Well back when I was raising Scout and Jem they would get in to some trouble with me and there teachers. Scout just started the first grade on her first day of school she came home for lunch and told me about her teacher and the way she was yelling at her and all Scout was doing was telling her the way things are. Scout is not liking her school because the way she is taught they act like the kids are dumb and don’t know anything.

Jem is one of those boys that likes football and wants his me to play for the methadist. Our community has an annual football game and all the fathers play in it but I am just to old to play. One day during the summer I was on my way to town when Jem and Scout introduced me to their new friend named Dill. One day I cought them playing a game with scisors.

I knew what the kids were playing they were playing a game to make fun of BOO Radley. I had a talk with them and asked what they were doing with the scisors. They told me that they were cutting something with them. One night I was called to take a case and the case was for Tom Robinson he was being accused for raping the Ewells daughter. I took the case because I know that Tom is innocent. I know that Tom is innocent because the Ewells are just a bunch of ignorant people.

As they moved Tom to the Maycomb Jail I wanted to stay up and look out for people that want to hurt him. I told the kids I would be gone and be back when they would be in bed so I told them good night I was not thinking of anything that could happen…
