My Cross-Examination for Simon

• Is it true that early on in your time on the island you left the encampment at night?
• Did anyone see you that night? Who?
• Did he recognize you as Simon or as another boy from the shelters?
• What was Percival's reaction to seeing you come out of the woods in the dark?
• Were you told not to wander around at night after this event?
• On the night of your demise, did you leave the camp?
• Were all of the boys aware that you would be prowling around that night?
• What did you see on top of the mountain?
• Did the figure move?
• Were you frightened at first?
• Could you understand how Sam and Eric could genuinely believe the body was a beast at a glance?
• Was fear of the beast justifiable because of this?
• Was your sudden arrival at the feast expected?
• Did the feast take place during nighttime or daytime?
• So there was little light to see by?
• Could a figure emerging from the forest in darkness be mistaken for another kind of creature?
