Dear Diary,
I am still sad since about my husband death, because I knew my husband wasn’t guilty of anything and they don’t like Tom because of his color. I read the newspaper that Mr. Underwood wrote, and I cry very time I read the newspaper. I am very scared to tell my children, that their father is dead, because I don’t want them to cry every night like I do because I miss him very much. The only thing I can do for Tom is pray for him, because I know he doesn’t want to be like this, he wants to be with his family and friends and help people when they need it. My friends and family from church helped me out to get back on my feet again since the death of my husband. Atticus and his kids comforted me and told me it’s going to be okay, because he didn’t do nothing wrong and he was an innocent man to us and your church. I cry every time when someone brings up Tom name so I had to turn to my reverend about this whole situation going on right now. He told me that the best thing I could do is pray and talk to Tom in my prayers and let him talk back to me. I also told the Reverend that has to tell my kids about the situation because they have to know someday. I just can’t take it because it is hard for me to tell the kids what’s happening right now.
The next afternoon I went to work and I saw this shadow, until I turned around and it look like a man’s body and it was Bob Ewell following me every time I was walking. He was farther away from me but he was still following me either way, Link Deas had seen me and Bob Ewell assessment me and told Bob if he keeps following me then he’s going to arrested Bob. People don’t need that in Maycomb, because no one should feel that way here and it’s like people give me the stink eye when I walk in maycomb since my color isn’t white. I just want to walk anywhere not feeling like someone is going to do something to me since I’m not white. I knew Bob was trying to kill me and other people as well because since he got my husband, he was after me and trying to kill me since he doesn’t like colored people. I noticed I have friends helping me out getting Bob since he is evil and all he wants everything going his way and he doesn’t care about anyone but himself.
I noticed that I have to make a change in this town, because I think everyone is living in fear and scared that people is going to kill them. It was night and it was time for Halloween and my kids went to go trick or treating with some of their friends. Scout and Jem went house to house to get candy since it was Halloween, and they noticed that a guy was trying to give them a ride. They didn’t even know who the person was so they kept walking, but when they told me this I noticed that the only person who could do that was Bob Ewell, but the other people didn’t even know that but because it wasn’t allegelly. The kids were terrified because they didn’t know what to do. Scout was being hurt when it was happening, but the person that was really hurt was Jem because he had a bump on his head and his arm was hurt badly. Scout thought he wasn’t going to make it because it was so bad, later that night Bob Ewell was found killed. Everyone consented that it would be a good place for him in heaven.
Sincerely, Helen
