Resume chapter eleven

On the way to the business district in Maycomb is the house of Mrs. Dubose, a cantankerous old lady who always shouts
at Jem and Scout as they pass by. Atticus warns Jem to be a gentleman to her, because she is old and sick, but one day
she tells the children that Atticus is not any better than the “niggers and trash he works for,” and Jem loses his temper.
Jem takes a baton from Scout and destroys all of Mrs. Dubose’s camellia bushes. As punishment, Jem must go to her
house every day for a month and read to her. Scout accompanies him and they endure Mrs. Dubose’s abuse and peculiar
fits, which occur at the end of every reading session. Each session is longer than the one before. Mrs. Dubose dies a little
more than a month after Jem’s punishment ends. Atticus reveals to Jem that she was addicted to morphine and that the
reading was part of her successful effort to combat this addiction. Atticus gives Jem a box that Mrs. Dubose had given
her maid for Jem; in it lies a single white camellia.

Resume chapter twelve

Calpurnia decides to take the children to her church, a «colored» church, that Sunday. One woman, Lula, criticizes
Calpurnia for bringing white children to church, but the congregation is generally friendly, and Reverend Sykes welcomes
them, saying that everyone knows their father. The church has no money for hymnals, and few of the parishioners can
read, so they sing by echoing the words that Zeebo, Calpurnia’s eldest son and the town garbage collector, reads from
their only hymnal. When the children return home, they find Aunt Alexandra waiting for them.

Resume chapter thirteen

Jem and Scout, Atticus has arranged for Aunt Alexandra to come live with them indefinitely, so that Scout can have some
feminine influence in her life. Aunt Alexandra leaves her own husband and son behind, but this seems not to bother her
at all, really. That Scout and Jem don't believe in Aunt Alexandra's «Streak» theory causes a bit of tension in the
household. Aunt Alexandra shows Scout and Jem a book written by their Cousin Joshua, who, according to Atticus, went
crazy in college and tried to kill the president. When Jem relates this last part back to Aunt Alexandra, she gets huffy and
questions whether the children understand how important their heritage is. This leads to an uncomfortable scene where
Atticus tries to impress upon them that they're the product of gentle breeding, though they both know that this isn't
really how he feels.
