Tom Robinson

Dear Diary,
I been havein a real bad day. I'm at the courthouse now on break. I really appreciate Mr. Finch for standin up for me. I mean if he wasn't my lawyer, I would probablly lose the case. I feel sorry for him though. People don't like when a white man stands up for a black man, even if I am innocent. Mr. Finch is the only one who knows that I'm not guilty. I would never even touch a white girl if she didn't want me to. I would also never hurt anyone less the hurt me first. I don't really know why Mr. Ewell is wants me to go to jail so bad. I never did anythin to him. Well looks like my breaks about over. I really hope Mr. Finch will win this case for me.

Tom,
I think you are a liar and everyone knows it. I don't know why Atticus would even try to defend you 'cause you hurt Mayella and you know it! I can't wait for this trial to be over and for you to be found guilty!

Tom,
You are welcome. It was an honor to be able to stand up for you. I know are innocent, even if everyone else may think differently. I am grateful for the food that your family sent to us.

Tom,
I think you are innocent. Mr. Ewell is just makin stuff up. He don't know what he's talkin about. Don't worry Atticus will make sure everyone knows your innocent.

Tom,
I am happy that you believe in Atticus. I'm very proud for him. He is a great man and father. Im not really sure who to believe though, you or Mr. Ewell. We'll just have to wait and see what happens. Hope evrythin' works out ok!
