The Trial is Happening Soon...

2/26/08

Today Mr.Gilmer, our lawyer, came over. He wanted to go over what he would say the day of the trial. Our story is that I asked Tom Robinson to come inside our fence to bust up a dresser for me. Mr.Gilmer says I have to say that when he came inside he grabbed me and took advantage of me. Then I have to explain that my dad got home and saw what was happening and Tom Robinson ran away.

My father and Heck Tate, the sheriff, are going to testify too. They are all on my side. I feel bad about blaming Tom Robinson for something he didn't do, but if I don't listen to my father he will hurt me again, and probably a lot worse this time.
