I HAVE read the book!

I loved it!

I'm finishing up coursework for tomorrow, but I can't find mention of her name in the trial scenes, I just need to know before I waste my time writing a lot when I could be working on something else(I'm doing Point Of View work)

thanks, now I know she definiely doesn't. It's just that me and my friends were quarrelling over the fact that maybe Miss Maudie lied about going to the trial. Thanks for all your help johnslat.

To the rest of you-don't make accusations before you KNOW that someone hasn't read the book!

No, she doesn't.

"The trial begins: all the town’s there (except Miss Maudie). They see Dolphus Raymond (174, 176), the town “drunk” (c.f. 220). He lives with a black woman because he prefers blacks to whites. The town excuses him because he’s a drunk, he owns a lot of land and he’s from an old family."

It is a great book. But since i don't know why you are needing to know i believe Miss Maudie was the nice neighbor and didn't want to be apart of a trial that everyone else was so eager to view.

Scout misunderstands omit Maudie whilst she is discussing the snowman with Atticus. She hears "Morphodite" whilst Maudie of course says "hermaphrodite". After the fire, Scout tells Maudie to no longer undertaking... their Morphodaite may be only high-quality... that's what motives Maudie to snigger. i'm specific that the stress of only dropping her living house to the fire additionally had lots to do together with her outburst... style of a thank you to launch her stress.

Nope.
"'You goin' to court this morning?' asked Jem. We had strolled over.
'I am not,' she [Miss Maudie Atkinson] said. 'I have no business with the court this morning.'
'Aren't you going to watch?' asked Dill.
'I am not. 't's morbid, watching a poor devil on trial for his life. Look at all those folks, it's like a Roman carnival.'" (page 159)
