Mrs. Hale was asked to join the party in order to give Mrs. Peters, the sheriff s wife, some companionship. In the story, Mrs. Hale leaves cues of guilty feelings. As an example, the narrator states,  Martha Hale had a moment of feeling that she could not cross that threshold.  The reason being given that she had been too busy to come by but  now  she could come (Glaspell 2). Another instance to be noted is a conversation between her and the young attorney. During this conversation, he asked if they were friends since they were neighbors. Her answer was sympathetic,  I’ve seen little enough of her late years. I ve not been it this house-it s been morethan a year.  Then she goes on to explain,  I liked her well enough. Farmers  wives have their hands full,  it never seemed a very cheerful place (Glaspell 6). At this point, Mrs. Hale s empathy toward Mrs. Wright is apparent.

However, Walter Cunningham did not accept the quarter, making Miss Caroline impatient as to why he wouldn’t take it. Walter then asks Scout to explain the situation to Miss Caroline. She says, “. . .The Cunninghams never took anything they can’t pay back-no church baskets and no script stamps. They never took anything of of anybody, they get along with what they have.

Just by being told that this was Diane Guerrero’s story and from me knowing she was an actress I thought it would be your basic coming to fame story. I was completely wrong in every single way. It really goes to show that there’s always more to the person you see on-screen and that they started off a normal human being who has lived through their fair share of struggles.
