"I'll say it again Miss Rachel, I saw Boo Radley climb right out from under the Finch family's porch. Right out from under the porch he came." Miss Stephanie tattled.
"Oh, my goodness. I just knew he was a madman! I just knew it! What happened next?" Miss Rachael asked in horrible interest.
"Then, sweet little Jean Louise comes out of the house and swings on her tire swing. Then Boo crawled out and drug her far away. Far away Racheal! I didn't see them for the rest of the day. Then Boo, that horrible man, came into the Finch's house holding Jean. The poor girl looked totally knocked out, I'll tell you right now Rachael, I don't know what he did to her, but she was knocked out cold. I said, 'excuse me', I said, 'Mr Arthur Radley, what are you doing with Jean Louise Finch.' And you know what he does?"
"What?"
"He turns in my direction and growls at me. Rachael he was drooling all over the place and I have never seen a man with fangs like Boo Radley's. I tell you now, I tell you, keep that nephew of your's away from that horrid man." Stephanie warned, shaking her finger at Rachael, who stared at her in shock. Dill walked out of Miss Rachael's house after hearing news about Boo Radley. Dill just arrived in Maycomb this morning and was nervous about what happened to Scout and Jem. All he knew was that Scout and Jem were attacked on Halloween night near the Radley Place. If Dill's friends survived Boo, then they must have seen him.
"What happened Aunt Rachael?" Dill asked.
"Oh, Stephanie Crawford was just tellin' me about Boo Radley climbing out from under the porch and taking poor Jean Louise somewhere for the whole day." Rachael said. Dill's eyes widened and he looked at the Finch's house. Nothing looked out of place.
"What happened?" He asked.
"I reckon, Arthur's taken over the whole Finch house by now." Stephanie said. Dill ran to the Finch house, ignoring the calls from the two women. He flung the door open and ran inside. And there was Boo, sitting at the dinner table with Scout and Atticus. They all looked at Dill with suprised expressions, Arthur seemed a little red.
"Dill!" Scout shouted. She jumped up and hugged her friend. "Meet Boo."
