Chapter 20

Dill and I went outside when Atticus kicked us out of the trial. Dolphus Raymond, the town drunk, came up to us. Dolphus always had a drink in his hand at all times. Always in a brown paper bag. Dill was thirsty and Mr. Raymond took out of his brown bag a Coca Cola bottle. He's not a drunk, he just pretends to be because the town talks about him anyway so he just wanted to give them something to talk about.

When I got back inside the courthouse Atticus was coming to a conclusion and giving all the facts to the jury. He was saying how a man should not be considered a liar because he is black. Everyone should say what they think is right, but it's never like that. Tom was mainly convicted because of the color of his skin.
