They are eventually attacked by a mystery man, and Jem's arm is broken. another man rushes the attacker and pulls him off of Scout. There is a dying cough, and Socut begins to look for Jem, but finds the attacker, who smells like stale whiskey. She finds the road, and sees her savior carrying Jem to the house. They phone the doctor and the sheriff, and when Heck Tate comes, he says he's found Bob Ewell with a kitchen knife in his ribs.

the doctor comes and visits Jem, and he only has a broken arm. Scout replays the story of what happens to the sheriff, and when he asks where theother man went, Scout points to the man standing in the corner, who turns out to be Arthur Radley
