Due to the fact that Elizabeth’s mother “had finally birthed a son” (Cockerline 1), her father refused to pay the fees necessary for her education.

Elizabeth had her innocence stolen from an authority figure that she should have been able to trust. Her teacher’s actions caused
When she is caught by her husband, Hugh, she is told “If you give a nigger an inch, he’ll take an ell”, as if to discourage her actions. Of course, in the long run, those words did discourage Sophia’s attempts at educating Frederick, and her entire personality and attitude toward Frederick changed. She became meaner, more brutal, and just overall indecent toward Frederick. The power that her husband encouraged her to possess took away the only kindness Frederick had ever encountered. Frederick never let the discouragement from Hugh or the sudden rise of power from Sophia change his outlook; he instead taught himself how to read.

They originally had a lot of the land that was taken over by the French and English. The hostility they showed towards Mary Rowlandson and her tribe was fierce, but could have been worse. They did not kill everyone, and eventually freed them. It seemed that the only thing that got Rowlandson through captivity was her dependence on God, as she mentions Him numerous times and refers to her Bible as “my guide by day, and my pillow by night” (Rowlandson, 25). When she was in captivity by the Indians, she could tell they weren’t Christians, which frightened her because she was used to always being around other English Christians.

By the end of TKMB by Harper Lee, the change in Scout from the beginning to the end is extremely conspicuous to the readers and her family although it may not be to Scout herself. Scout Finch never wanted to be like her Aunt Alexandra, who was always trying to be polite and lady like. Scout tells her aunt that she didn’t wear dresses because she wouldn’t be able to do “things that required pants” (81). Scout never does anything that requires a skirt, other than going to church. If she did wear a skirt, she is telling her aunt that she wouldn’t be able to do anything.
I was unable to describe to Mary that her father will no longer into the room and pick her up or even tell her stories at bedtime. I also urged her brother, Edward Jr. to not try to mention it to her, but support and take care of her as best as he can. Mary was growing up and meanwhile this whole time I was telling her stories of her father and everything that happened between him and me inclusive the part with Bertha and how she burned the house down. Edward Jr. looks a younger version of his father, finally happy and married to a wonderful wife who is expecting her first son within this year. Mary enjoys going out with her friends to parties and even brings my cousin’s daughters with her.
