TKAM-Scout's Journal#15

The trial of Tom Robinson's case began to come to a head. There were many people going to the church during weekend, even Mr.Underwood who never went there before. Last night, my father left home with an electrical lightbulb. My brother and I asked if we could go with him together, but he refused. I felt very disappointed. However, my brother suggested to go out and find our father. Then, we went to our father's office. However, we didn't see him at the office. Finally, we saw him sitting outside the county jail. He was reading his book with the lightbulb. Later, a group of men came to the jail and spoke to my father. I ran to them, and I saw Mr.Cunningham there. I tried to speak friendly to him, so they wouldn't hurt my father. I told Mr.Cunningham that I had invited his son to our home for lunch. He smiled to me and promised me not to hurt my father. Then, Mr.Cunningham and his friends left.
