Dear Journal,
Sorry I haven’t wrote in a while but me and Jem have been busy this past couple months reading to Ms. Dubose. Ms. Dubose was a terrible, nasty old lady who Jem went off on one day. He started ripping up her plants and yard after she said something mean about Atticus. As his punishment Jem had to read to her every day and I came along for company. Everyday see would sit a stare and always during his reading she would fall asleep but have some sort of weird fit, she scared me a lot. A couple days ago she died so we have no longer been reading to her and if I was scared of her Jem was terrified. I overheard Jem and Atticus talking about her in the living room about some sort of an addiction but I don’t understand. Atticus tells us she was courageous but I don’t understand how he can say that when he said such mean things about him.
