Even though spinning a web was tiring and draining, she still did it if it meant saving Wilbur’s life. She proclaims her friendship and explains the love she has for Wilbur by saying, “You have been my friend. That in itself is a tremendous thing. I love my webs for you because I liked you. After all, what is a life, anyway? We are born, we live a little while, and we die. A spider's life cannot help being something of a mess, with all this trapping and eating flies. By helping you, perhaps I was trying to lift up my life a trifle. Heaven knows anyone's life can stand a little of that.” (P.137-138) this showed how much of a good friend she was to Wilbur and how much time and effort she put into trying to save his life.

While trying to find a piece of paper and some string, Mrs. Peters stumbles upon a bird cage. As they examine the cage further, they notice that the door is broken, but assume the cat got it. The women toss up a few thoughts over the bird cage and Mrs. Hale throws out, “Looks as if someone must have been rough with it” (1086). As they continue, the women decide to take Mrs. Wright her quilt to work on while locked up but they soon find something that frightens them; they found the bird, but its neck was broken. Mrs. Peters, startled, says, “Somebody – wrung – its – neck” (1087). Both women are unsure what to do with the bird, but know to hide it from the men. This clue is great than the others because it possibly shows Mrs. Wrights breaking point. The possibility of her husband yanking open the cage door, taking out the bird, and breaking its fragile neck is enough for her to lose it and do him the same

All the children were scared of Taylor. Arianna used this to her advantage. "Mrs. Ari, how long have you been friends with Taylor?" One of the little girls ask. "Um, let's not get off track children.

Not infrequently, I had to take out at night what Walter had put in by day so as to have him start right the next day, but on the whole the basket, between us, got on amazingly well and I determined to use it as a card of introduction to Mrs. Berry the “Meh” of whom I had heard much about but never seen. Accordingly, armed with my playground products, I fared forth to break the ice and force a passage into some homes I had never succeeded in luring out to any of our many tempting “occasions” at the

We arrived to the fair as the swine show was beginning. The judge was introduced as Dennis Wooden, a nice older gentleman who said he had many years in the swine industry. Then they brought out the groups of kids and their pigs. It was, at first, confusing to me that there was a wide range of different aged children showing all at once. There were kids that were ten all the way to those who were about sixteen in the ring. I soon realized that they split up their groups by pig weight and not by age groups like our fair does.
