Summarizer Example
Louise and her mother spent time together at the pig pen watching
the pigs and talking about Louise’s father. Mother tried to explain to
Louise that her father was a very energetic and surprising man. He was
a good man that would do anything for his family. They tried to calm Delilah
and help her into the house. She did not want to budge. She just wanted
to be with her babies. Louise and her mother paid a visit to the morning
service at their church. They sat in front of the Watkins’ family. Luke
Watkins picked on Louise the entire service and Tod and Tom Watkins harassed
Louise’s mother about their new pig once again, wanting to take it for
themselves, but Clara refused. Tod and Tom Watkins had an in depth discussion
about Clara. They both want her in their lives since her husband left.
Tod Watkins decided to file charges against Clara Tolliver for stealing
“his” pig and plans to win Clara over with their plan. The next day,
as Louise is visiting the pigs in the pen, Willie gets out and runs into
the woods. Louise searches for Willie frantically and finally coaxes him
back to the house. Louise and her mother plan to help Willie keep his human
senses because they think he is gaining more and more pig characteristics
everyday and losing human traits. In Louise’s frantic search for Willie,
she finds an old run-down house in the woods. After asking her mother,
she learns that it was Sadie Tolliver’s house. She is distant kin to her
father that had a suspicious, strange streak in her. She was known of practicing
magic.
