bob ewell to be a violent racist fool as for his daughter mayella the alleged victim atticus shows the court what a 6:11 desperate liar she is in fact it's obvious that bob bashed mayella not tom

dead while trying 7:24 to escape prison when macomb's townspeople react cynically mr underwood has the last word he writes an editorial in the maycomb 7:35 tribune comparing tom's killing to the
