Today was Tom Robinson's testimony. He stated on the night of November 21, that Mayella Ewell asked him to fix a door for her. So he went into the house expecting to find a broken door. But there was none.When he asked about the door, she closed the door to the room in which they were in. She then asked him to lift a box for her, he began to reach for it when she hugged him. He said he then saw Bob Ewell her father and so he ran for his life because he feared for it.
During the testimony Dill began to cry. So I took him outside to ask him why he was cring. when we got outside I asked him. He stated he was crying due to the treatment of Tom Robinson by Mr.Gilmer who was showing little to none respect for Tom. H e was calling Tom "boy". Dill didn't understand and that's why he was crying.
