Perspective of Walter Cunningham
When the summer was endin, my paps was finishing paying Mr. Finch with the stuff we grow on the farm. We don't come by much money to pay our entailment with so that's why we pay our entailment in that way. This life ain’t easy but we make by with what we got and we don’t accept stuff from others because we like to keep our own.
Now that school started I had less work to do 'round the house but I got to go to school during the day so I could get an education. During the day I could bring a lunch because of the crash we didn't have enough money to have lunch. That dang Scout Finch was tellin our new teacher about how poor we are and when Miss Caroline offered me a quarter I declined but she still pushed on to give it to me for lunch. Then when we went to recess Scout jumped me and started beatin on me and everyone was watching. Her brother, Jem, had to pull her off of me it was like she went rogue.
One night I woke up to use the bathroom and noticed that my paps was gone and so was the gun. I was worried something happened but about an hour later he comes back on a truck. I asked what happened and why he left to go out, he was just silent and went to bed so I used the bathroom and went to bed and I still wonder to this day what he did that night.
My paps went to the trial about the colored man that raped Mayella. He was there for almost the whole day. It turns out he looked not guilty but he turned out to be guilty. Later he tried to run I heard and he was shot many times. The reason he probably lost the trial was because it was a black mans word over a white girls and a white mans word which never prevails in this world today.
A few days later we heard about a tragedy that happened. Mr. Ewell tried to attack Jem and Scout on the way home from the play. Apparently he was drunk and fell on his own knife but there was talk that Boo Radley came and saved their lives, and in the process killin Mr. Ewell. Either way I’m
