Tom Shot

I had recently found out that Tom was killed for attempt to escape from jail. He was shot not once, but 17 times. All that i had worked for went down the drain. I explained the Calpurnia the horrible event that took place. I had to go and inform Helen, Tom's wife. Jem protested that he come with me to Tom's house to inform Helen. I could not say no to him and also did not want to argue with him. I did not even have to tell Helen because I could already tell that she knew. She fainted soon after in a state of shock.

Good Day Mister Atticus. You did a real nice job of defendin' Mister Tom Robinson. You did the best you could. Defendin' a black man was a real good thing of you to do. An' I'm sure the things you said really made the people in the jury think 'bout their decision.
