Chapter 6

 

 

Jem and Dill were planning on sneaking to Boo Radley's house to try and catch a glance of him. So I tagged along. We tried looking through a lot of windows but at first we couldn't see anything. Then we saw him... Boo Radley! I remember perfectly that the man was wearing a hat and a fleece. Someone then shot a gun and we panicked. We ran to the school yard and we crawled under the fence so no one could catch us.

 



Once we got home we saw that the whole neighborhood was crowding the Radley's house. Jem and I were asking all the neighbors what had happened as if we didn't know. Miss Maudie, one of our neighbors, said that Nathan Radley shot at an black man in his yard. All the neighbors say that Mr. Radley is waiting to shoot at anything that trespasses on his lawn again. Atticus then notices Jem isn't wearing any pants. Dill tells my father that he lost in a game in strip poker, but we know they really got caught on the school yard fence.
