We went to the court house near noon and then we went up to the balcony with one of their friends. I think his name was Reverend Sykes. The trial was okay until the asked Tom Robinson to come up and sit in the chair that they call the witness chair. Atticus treated him with respect like a proper southern gentlemen should. Then it was the proscuting lawyer's turn. The proscuting lawyer was Mr. Gilmer. He was rude and looked like a slimy and sly man. He started treating Mr. Robinson poorely and I started to cry. So Scout and I went outside and meet Mr. Dolphous Raymond. Scout before said that he was drinking whisky from a coke bottle in a brown paper bag. He let me had a sip of it and it was actually Coca-Cola! After that Atticus was giving a like closing statement and had to go to Scout's and Jem's home for supper. I fell asleep and didn't see the end of it. I asked Scout the day after the trial and she said that Tom Robinson had been convicted guilty and he was going to jail. Love your son, Dill.
