Boo Radley's Secret Diary

July 1932

This last days I've been watchin' two children walkin' throughout the house. They seem to be very kind boys, so I decided to give them a gift. I left them some candies on the tree outside the house. I realized that they were gettin' my presents, so I left them other things, like my father's watch and the silver coin I have since I was a child. But my older brother, Nathan, as soon as he discovered my secret, decided to  cut my relationship with the children, by pluggin' the knothole were I left the presents. I'm afraid I will not be able to be their friend any more, as I'm not supposed to get out the house. But I'll keep watchin' them for their safety.

August 1935

Things are gettin' worse every time. The Negro, who's name I can't remember, was considered guilty by the jury. Actually I was there, because I realize that the children were goin' to the court alone, and I was protectin' them from Mr. Ewell. He seems to be a very nasty man. I heard Jem sayin' that the case was already won when his father was half of his speech. But then, I don't know why, the girl's friend start crying and they went outside. I followed her but I realized she was whit an adult, so I left them and get inside the court. After all the speeches, the jury went out of the court room. We wait for more than an our. The children's servant get them home and then came back. Afterwords, the jury came out and gave their verdict.
Poor Negro, I think he is innocent. After this events, I get back home, and I was almost catched by my brother, but I get to my room before him. I must be careful about him.

October 1935

This have been the most exitin' days since.. I can't remember. It was Halloween, and every children get out with their costumes. The little girl was disguise as a ham. They wet to the party that the school organize every year. When they went back, they decided to walk through the woods. But then Mr. Ewell get through the woods too. I followed them just to be sure. But suddenly, Mr. Ewell hit the old brother and knocked him down. I ran to defend the little girl and killed Mr. Ewell with a knife. I grabbed the boy to his home and hide behind the door, but the little girl discovered me. She seemed to be very kind, as I assumed. Then I returned home. I'm glad I was able to safe their lives.
