in chapter 19 it is Toms turn to be on the stand. Atticus questions him and gives the jury a discription of who Tom is and how he acts. The suprising thing that is reveald is Tom's left arm is crippled and worthless. Another suprise was when Tom testified that he and Mayella spent much time together doing various types of work. After he testifies he didnt rape her the cross examiner is very rude to him and it disturbs Dill to the point where he gets sick. This entire chapter is all about Tom Robinson and how he is a good soul.

I agree with you Blake. Tom Robinson is an innocent and trustworthy person.
