Finny Died from a Second Broken Leg

May 23, 1943

I can’t believe Finny is gone.  That stupid doctor needs to learn how to do a simple bone setting.  Maybe Finny would still be alive then.  I wish I could talk to Finny one more time, so we could talk like before, and maybe even think of a way to get Brinker back for making us go to that stupid mock trial.  I don’t even know what to do with myself now that my best friend is gone.  I don’t know if it was my fault or not, because if it wasn’t for me, there wouldn’t have been a trial in the first place.  On the other hand, it was the inexperienced doctor who couldn’t set a bone.  Either way, he shouldn’t have died like that.
