Maycob was an old town. Everyone knew each other around. People were friendly but there were two things that bothered me. The Radley's and Atticus' Tom Robinson case. Boo Radley never came out of his house and it bothered me and I had no clue why he never came out. It was all after the Tom Robinson case that I realized nobody seemed to care. He was charged guilty even though he wasn't.
Everyone seemed to continue their life like nothing happened. Atticus made it clear that even Scout would understand that Bob Ewell did it and not Tom. Reverend Sykes said that I shouldn't get comfortable since it was not yet over. Women and children from all over Maycomb came to the trial, even though they knew that it might get naughty. As for Scout, I knew she could handle it.
That made me think if the people of Maycomb even cared about what they were looking and listening to. They didn't seem to.
When we followed Atticus to the jail we found out that people were trying to hurt him. One of them was Mr. Cunningham. Atticus told me they were our friends. It didn't seem to.
I felt different about them now. Was there any way to make them realize Tom was innocent? As Atticus said the white people who treated everyone lower class are trash. That's what I think of Maycomb people. Trash.
