What stuck with me the most about this chapter was the young man who refused to be
cowed and the child who couldn't die. The first hanging, the young man, was the first in
the book to show true courage. I think I speak for most people when I say that if you
have to die like that Ihope I would have the courage to act as he did. His body language
and actions screamed that this is wrong that you cannot break him and that your evil can
be conquered. He was a hero. The young boy who took so long to die was horrific and
almost as bad as his death was the cowardice of those preasent. I don't know how I would
truly respond if I were actually in that position, but from my relativly safe viewpoint I
say that I would rather die than stand idly by as a young boy is slaughtered.
