Chapter 15


The other night Atticus left in the dark to go to the courthouse jail. Jem and I were very scared for him. Quietly, Jem, Dill, and I snuck out of the house and rushed to the jail. We were hiding behind the wall while we listened to this group of angry men talk bad to Atticus. I was so mad! I ran out from behind the wall and broke up the fight. 


After the group got in their cars and drove away, we made our way home. I asked Atticus why those men were being so mean to him. He said to not mind it. They are just angry. Jem was also confused on why the men were being rude to Atticus.

Chapter 12


    

My brother Jem has been acting different lately. Usually him and I would always get along, but now it seems like he wants nothing to do with me. He spends a lot of time in his room. He is moody and doesn't want to talk to anyone. I know he is growing up, but I just want him to be nice to me!


Today Jem and I attended church with Calpurnia. It was a lot different than what we had expected. The folks there sang a lot of songs. They were all very nice to us. Jem and I were the only two white people there.
