The morning of June 27th was clear and sunny, with the fresh warmth of a
full-summer day; the flowers were blossoming profusely and the grass was
richly green. The people of the village began to gather in the square,
between the post office and the bank, around ten o'clock; in some towns
there were so many people that the lottery took two days and had to be
started on June 26th, but in this village, where there were only about three
hundred people, the whole lottery took less than two hours, so it could
begin at ten o'clock in the morning and still be through in time to allow the
villagers to get home for noon dinner.
The children assembled first, of course. School was recently over for the
summer, and the feeling of liberty sat uneasily on most of them; they
tended to gather together quietly for a while before they broke into
boisterous play, and their talk was still of the classroom and the teacher, of
books and reprimands. Bobby Martin had already stuffed his pockets full of
stones, and the other boys soon followed his example, selecting the
smoothest and roundest stones; Bobby and Harry Jones and Dickie
Delacroix-- the villagers pronounced this name "Dellacroy"--eventually
made a great pile of stones in one corner of the square and guarded it
against the raids of the other boys….
…
"[The winner of the lottery is] Tessie," Mr. Summers said, and his voice was
hushed. "Show us her paper. Bill."
Bill Hutchinson went over to his wife and forced the slip of paper out of her
hand. It had a black spot on it, the black spot Mr. Summers had made the
night before with the heavy pencil in the coal company office. Bill
Hutchinson held it up, and there was a stir in the crowd.
"All right, folks." Mr. Summers said. "Let's finish quickly."
Although the villagers had forgotten the ritual and lost the original black
box, they still remembered to use stones. The pile of stones the boys had
made earlier was ready; there were stones on the ground with the blowing
, scraps of paper that had come out of the box. Mrs. Delacroix selected a
stone so large she had to pick it up with both hands and turned to Mrs.
Dunbar. "Come on," she said. "Hurry up."
Mrs. Dunbar had small stones in both hands, and she said, gasping for
breath. "I can't run at all. You'll have to go ahead and I'll catch up with
you."
The children had stones already. And someone gave little Davy Hutchinson
few pebbles.
Tessie Hutchinson was in the center of a cleared space by now, and she
held her hands out desperately as the villagers moved in on her. "It isn't
fair," she said. A stone hit her on the side of the head. Old Man Warner
was saying, "Come on, come on, everyone." Steve Adams was in the front
of the crowd of villagers, with Mrs. Graves beside him.
"It isn't fair, it isn't right," Mrs. Hutchinson screamed, and then they were
upon her.
(From “The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson)
