Good country People

Summery~
This story is mainly about two women who friends and try to be good Christian women. Their names are Mrs. Hopewell and Mrs. Freeman, and have daughters and try very hard to bring them up right. Mrs. Hopewell and Mrs. Freeman also enjoy dinner together, along with Joy, Mrs. Hopewell’s daughter. One particular night a man by the name of Manley Pointer stopped by Mrs. Hopewell’s door to sell them bibles. He asked her if she would meet him to go for a walk. So, Joy did. He lead her to a hay loft and told her that he loved her and kissed her and force her to say that she loved him back. . Without asking, he took Joy’s glass off her face and put them in his pocket. Joy was shot in the leg and had a wooden leg and he asked her to remove it and took it. Now, Joy was trapped in the loft alone. All Pointers said was I am not a Christian and left her there without any help to get down.

Reflection~
I think the women in the story were so good and Christian to think that anything bad could happen and did not teach Joy to not be so gullible and maybe she would not of been left in a hay loft.
