By: Marissa, Melissa, Alayna,Zack, and Keaton CHAPTER 14
In chapter 14 Aunt Alexandra moves in with Scout, Jem and Atticus. Also Scout wants to go over Calpurnia's house after church but Aunt Alexandra wont let her go. We think that Aunt Alexandra is racist because she doesn’t want the kids around or involved with Calpurnia because of her skin. Also aunt Alexandra wants to be the mother figure and take control of the kids and make everything her way. Later on in the chapter Dill finds his way back to Maycomb. Dill told Scout he ran away from home because he didn’t like his father and he chained Dill to the wall in the basement. Dill stole 13 dollars from his mother’s purse and took a train to a city in Alabama 11 miles from Maycomb. CHAPTER 14 SUMMARY
