Chapter 10- Da Dawg

In chapter ten, Sout became ashamed of Atticus because he was older, and she felt all her classmates had a father that had a skill. Then, when a "mad", rabid dog came hobbling down the street, Atticus was called upon to shoot it. The dog was in the "dumb" stage of rabies. One of legs of the dog was hobbled and the dog was limping. It was walking in a straight line at a very slow pace. Then the dog came to a fence, closing of the Radley's yard. It stopped, and thats when Atticus shot it.
