Dear Journal,
Mr. Heck Tate and Mr. Ewell just got done testifying and Jem seems to think that Atticus has the case in the bag but I’m not so sure, it’s going to be hard to win over a white jury to free a black man. First the prosecutor questioned the witnesses and then Atticus had cross-examination. By asking the questions Atticus showed that a doctor wasn’t called to the scene which I don’t really understand why he had to prove that but then something better happened. Atticus proved that Mayella’s attacker was left-handed!! Tom Robinson has a crippled left-hand so he couldn’t have possibly have done it, but still he is a black man and it will be hard to win this case.
