In Chapter 29, Scout finally meets Boo Radley after surviving Bob Ewell's vicious attack. Sheriff Tate tells Scout to recount her story of the attack and she mentions that someone yanked Mr. Ewell off of her. Scout says that she thought Atticus had come to save them, and Mr. Tate asks her who intervened. Scout says, "Why there he is, Mr. Tate, he can tell you his name" (Lee 362). Scout then points to Arthur "Boo" Radley, who is standing quietly in the corner. Scout proceeds to give a description of Boo by commenting on his sickly, white hands which had never been in the sunlight. Boo is a thin man, and Scout mentions that he was wearing khaki pants and a ripped denim shirt. She says that his face was as white as his hands and Boo had a "jutting" chin. Scout also mentions that his cheeks were so thin that they seemed hollow, and his mouth was wide. Boo had gray, colorless eyes, and his hair was dead and thin. When Scout finally realizes that she is standing face to face with Boo Radley, she tears up and says, "Hey, Boo" (Lee 362).
