These chapters were VERY interesting since it was all about Tom Robinsons case.

It was shocking that nobody brought a doctor for Mayella Violet Ewell when she’s was supposedly attacked/raped. They were too occupied to accuse Tom Robinson then to care about Mayella bruises.  What I liked the most was what Atticus did with Mr. Robert E. Lee Ewell. He found that Mr. Ewell was left handed and that he has a very NASTY temper when he’s wasted/drunk. Mr. Ewell is a HUGE fibber too since he would accuse someone over what he did in anger to his children. Mayella to me is one LONELY person since she never had any friends, she thought Atticus was macking fun of with her but he wasnt, and she wasn’t around anyone her on age. It was nice of Tom to help her out for free since I would do the same thing for someone as lonely as her. I don’t blame her for lying to everyone about what happened since I would be scared too if my father, during those times, found out that I was hitting on a negro man. I agree with what Tom Robinson was sayin cause how could he have hurt Mayella when his left arm was damaged from a cotton gin(a machine for separating seeds, husks, and other unwanted material from cotton fiber) when his was little. He may be strong enough to chop up a chiffarobe(I think it’s a log, not really sure) but I don’t think he could use his left so much since he seemed off balance when he was standing up in the courtroom. It’s a good thing Tom ran off when Mr. Ewell came out of nowhere blazing mad that his daughter just kissed a negro man, I would have never stayed if that happened.
