Answer 1

The two things that Bob Ewell admits he saw on the day of November twenty first were-

"-I seen that black ni gger yonder ruttin’ on my Mayella!" and

". . . she was lyin’ on the floor squallin".

Step-by-step explanation:

Harper Lee's "To Kill A Mockingbird" revolves around the story of the people of Maycomb in general and the Finch family in particular. Though narrated by the youngest character Jean Louise "Scout" Finch, the story takes us through the small Alabama town and their differences with the issue of racism presented through the court case of the ra pe of a young white girl by a black man.

Robert "Bob" Ewell is the father of Mayella Ewell, the victim in the case while Tom Robinson was the culprit accused of doing the deed. During the court hearing, Bob Ewell told the whole court what he saw that afternoon of November twenty-first, "-I seen that black ni g ger yonder rut tin’ on my Mayella!" and that ". . . she was lyin’ on the floor squ allin". Immediately after seeing her in this condition, he ran to Tate to get help.
