Jem and Scout are walking to the pageant when Cecil Jacobs pops out and frightens them. This is an example of foreshadowing!

# data[].attributes.body
After Scout ruins the pageant, she leaves with Jem. Outside is "black dark," and they're alone. Scout is having trouble walking on her own because her costume is cumbersome and bulky. Remember, it's made out of chicken wire and cloth.

Scout observes that Jem is tightly gripping the top of her costume. Then, he asks if she hears anything. Scout initially thinks he's trying to frighten her, but eventually starts to notice the sound too. The two of them think it's just Cecil Jacobs trying to surprise them again, so they slow down. Jem notes that Scout's costume makes her visible in the dark. Then, Scout starts yelling into the darkness trying to provoke Cecil into coming out.

Jem realizes the sound probably isn't Cecil Jacobs and asks Scout to remove her visible costume. Because it's so bulky, she can't remove it. He's afraid, but doesn't want Scout to know it. Scout observes that whoever is following them is dragging their feet and wearing thick cotton pants.

The children stop walking at the big oak tree on the Radley property. Then, the person following them breaks into a sprint. Jem orders Scout to run, but her costume is too bulky. Scout feels something crush into the chicken wire around her. She falls to the ground. Jem tries to pick her up and run, but they don't get very far.

Jem is pulled away from Scout and she hears him scream. She runs towards the scream, but bumps into a "flabby male stomach." Its owner grunts and begins to hold her so tight that she can't breathe. Suddenly, something pulls the man away from Scout and onto the ground. Then, she hears someone wheeze.

Everything goes quiet except for the sound of a man breathing heavily and coughing.

Scout calls out for Jem. He doesn't answer. Then, she hears the man "pull something heavy" from the ground. Then, Scout encounters a body laying by her feet. It has stubble on its face and it smells like alcohol.

Underneath the streetlight, Scout sees the man carrying Jem. It's obvious that Jem is too heavy for him. Scout also notices the way Jem's arm was "dangling crazily." She follows them to her front yard.

Atticus meets the stranger outside. Together, they bring Jem to his bedroom. Aunt Alexandra calls Dr. Reynolds. Then, Atticus calls Heck Tate.

# data[].attributes.body
Scout notices the stranger standing in the corner of Jem's room. She doesn't recognize him. Atticus doesn't offer the stranger a chair. Scout assumes Atticus is trying to make the stranger feel more comfortable.

Heck Tate says he found Scout's dress and pieces of her costume. He also says he found Bob Ewell's dead body underneath the Radley's oak tree with a kitchen knife stuck "up under his ribs."
