1) Heck Tate was "fetched" by Bob Ewell on November 21st.

2) Ewell told Tate that his daughter was raped by a black man.

3) Tate went to the Ewell home and found Mayella curled up on the living room floor. She was badly beaten, and when asked, said that Tom Robinson had hurt her.

4) Heck Tate went to the Robinson home and brought Tom back to the Ewells, where Mayella identified him as the man who beat and raped her.

5) No doctor was called

6) The location of Mayella's bruises link a lefft-handed man to the crime.
