2.) They were not the men I saw last night.

3.) A flash of plain fear was going out of his eyes.


Thursday: Word outta order.  Re-write the sentences so they make sense to the reader (All sentences come from To Kill A Mockingbird).

For example: Hot shot embarrassment through me: I had leaped into people a ring I did not know.
