Piggy was a thinker‚ the smartest kid I’ve ever known. It’s ironic to think that of all the boys‚ I knew Piggy the most and I do not even know his real name. I hurt’s me to think that I did not realize Piggy’s intelligence until it was almost too late. When we first met I laughed at him and teased him.

There had grown up tacitly among the biguns the opinion that Piggy was an outsider‚ not only by accent‚ which did not matter‚ but by fat‚ and ass-mar‚ and specs‚ and a certain disinclination for manual labour."

The boys laugh and completely ignore Piggy’s comment. Jack fosters the boys’ fear caused by the beast
