Chapter 6 - August

Summary of the chapter:
Joe was almost got shot, Because he was get drunk a lot before Mary and Frankie, Joe have parting at Lith Club on Broadway. They was on way to home and making fun on Joe, and Davey was in pain and Michael was into daydreaming. That Day hit happened is that Michael and Ma and Patrick not let Davey kill himself and when Ma go to home Davey was make everything look normal, Ma hear them screaming in hall and saw to Moe Duggan with knife kill to his thirteen and sixteen year old sons and he pull Brian and Joey to inside and call EMTs, Kathy arrive and take coat fur and she not care about Brain and Joey, They was lay on floor with a lot blood. EMTs arrive take Joey and he said take care his brother Brian. Then Ma saw to Drug and Davey was laughing at cop, Cop take Frankie for go jail. and court make Frankie choose go service or marine, Frankie decide go to Marines. Then Davey was flying off roof, that time he was died.

2 important quotations:
"I thought he'd made it up, or else was speaking in tongues like in the story he'd told me before about the apostles when they were filled with they Holy Spirit; with Davey I was ready for any kind of mysterious possession"(137). Quotes mean Davey was one special to his family, Because Davey was one good spirit and Ma was love him and Ma feel Davey was full with Holy Spirit. They are care about him.

"Then I thought about Davey, and his sense of humor, his brilliance, his funny attempts to understand and connect to the bizarre world of Old Colony he'd come to at the height of the busing chaos"(155).That quotes mean Davey was have hard time and he go Mass Mental before and he was breakdown and he want to kill himself and He still love his family so much and He have bad experience from he grow up in Old Colony and his statemented of family. 

My opinion:
This was sad story, Because when Brain and Joey get stab from his father Moe Duggan and Davey too, Davey have hard time with them. Everyone not tell police who and they not want death. That Old Colony was victims. I feel bad thing on Brain and Joey and Davey, Davey was try kill himself for over again.

  2. Rachael- I agree that this is a sad chapter. I felt bad for Davey. If he wasn't on drugs or alcohol he'd be alive and helping with the family. He was so kind and he had a real heart and cared about his younger brothers.
