Chapter Ten Summaries

In the beginning of the chapter you hear Piggy and Ralph talking about the death of Simon the night before while Samneric are out getting wood. They decide to not let Samneric know that they were a part of the murder, instead saying that they were on the outside and had left early. Then you see Roger entering Jack’s camp at the castle rock where Jack had tied up Wilfred and beat him. Jack says that they would be going on a hunt the next day and have a large feast to celebrate the successful hunt. Jack informs Maurice and Roger that they would have plans and be joining him that night. Back at Jack’s camp the boys realize that the fire is too big to really maintain so they let it go out for the night and go to bed. In the middle of the night Ralph, Piggy, and Samneric were attacked by Jack and the couple members of his tribe that he decided to bring with. The boys fight and get beaten up quite a bit and afterwards the boys of Jack’s tribe are seen triumphantly walking back with Piggy’s broken glasses in hand.
