>> Dill and Jem are at Jem's house playing, but it just wasn't as fun as usual. They were just playing. Atticus came home and he told them something had happened-- something serious had happened. Tom had died. And they were shocked. "What happened?" Atticus told them, "Well, Tom was scared and he ran away and the sheriff had really no other choice. He took his gun and he shot Tom and Tom died." And so now it was really important for Atticus to go and let Tom's wife know what had happened. So Atticus, Jem, and Dill got in the car and they drove over to Tom's house. They knocked on the door. Tom's wife came to the door and opened the door. And Atticus told her what happened. He told her that Tom had died. And she was so upset. Of course she was sobbing and crying and upset. Just then Atticus turns around because Bob Ewell had come up behind him and said, "Hey Atticus. I am thrilled that one is dead. And now there's going to be two more." If you're curious to know what happens, go ahead and read.
