The Meeting

Ralph's Journal

After i declared the meeting, it was time for everyone to know that they cant just play around all day and let us do all the work. I was very disappointed in everybody on the island, including myself for not keeping everybody on track. I started telling everyone that they needed to pull their own weight, and i sincerely did not mean to scare everybody with my effigy of anger. Every one on this island was acting completly ludicrous with their behavior. i really expected much more from a group of boys with decorum. By the time the meeting was about midway, a very young man walked up and started talking about the beast the was known to the littluns. I feel bad for the young man because almost every person at the assembly was looking at him jeeringly. The small boy almost started lamentation infront of the whole crowd of people. Jack was very mad at the meeting because i would never let him talk, but it is his fault that he let the fire out. Then Jack started talking about how if there was a beast, he and his hunters would kill it. After these few days on the island, i am feeling like people are starting to loose their manners.
