Where were mayellas seven siblings on the night she was allegedly assaulted?
Mayella's seven siblings were in town when she was allegedly assaulted. Mayella's father, Bob Ewell, claimed they were all at the dump collecting scraps, which was likely a lie to cover up the truth about what happened to Mayella.

What happens in chapter 17 of To Kill a Mockingbird?
The prosecutor, Mr. Gilmer, questions Heck Tate, who recounts how, on the night of November 21, Bob Ewell urged him to go to the Ewell house and told him that his daughter Mayella had been raped. When Tate got there, he found Mayella bruised and beaten, and she told him that Tom Robinson had raped her. Atticus cross-examines the witness, who admits that no doctor was summoned, and tells Atticus that Mayella's bruises were concentrated on the right side of her face. Tate leaves the stand, and Bob Ewell is called. Bob Ewell and his children live behind the town garbage dump in a tin-roofed cabin with a yard full of trash. No one is sure how many children Ewell has, and the only orderly corner of the yard is planted with well-tended geraniums rumored to belong to Mayella. An extremely rude little man, Ewell testifies that on the evening in question he was coming out of the woods with a load of kindling when he heard his daughter yelling. When he reached the house, he looked in the window and saw Tom Robinson raping her. Robinson fled, and Ewell went into the house, saw that his daughter was all right, and ran for the sheriff. Atticus's cross-examination is brief: he asks Mr. Ewell why no doctor was called (it was too expensive and there was no need), and then has the witness write his name. Bob Ewell, the jury sees, is left-handed-and a left-handed man would be more likely to leave bruises on the right side of a girl's face.

Please specify a year.
Who attacked the children at night in To kill a mockingbird?
The father of Mayella
How did tom's testimony about the evening of November 21 differ from mayella's?
Mayella indicated that she asked Tom to help her break apart a piece of furniture that was outside. She went inside to get him a nickel, and he snuck up behind her, grabbed her around the neck, hit her repeatedly, and then raped her. She kicked and screamed and then her dad was there yelling at her and she fainted. Tom's testimony is a bit different. He said that he had broken up the piece of furniture over a year ago, and she had offered to pay him a nickel, but he had refused and gone home. On the actual night in question, Tom said that she asked him inside the house, and told him that there was a door he needed to fix. So he went in and tried the door, which didn't need any fixing, and Mayella shut the door. He asked her where everyone else was, and she said the kids went in town for ice-cream. Then she asked him to get something that was on top of the chiffarobe, so he got on the chair to reach it, and she grabbed him around the legs, knocking the chair over. Then she jumped on him, hugging him, kissed him, told him that she never kissed a grown man before and that "what her papa do to her down't count." He shoved her away, and that is when Bob Ewell came on the scene. Mayella's testimony puts her as being attacked and raped by Tom, and Tom's testimony puts her as scheming to get them alone together, and trying to seduce him. The differences are stark, and highly significant.
What do you learn from Bob Ewell's evidence?
Ewell is left handed. Whoever hit Mayella on the night of the rape was also left handed. The brusing on her face, especially on her right eye means that someone was leading with their left hand. Tom Robinson has no use of his left hand because he got it caught in a cotton gin when he was a boy. Therefore, the most likely person who hit Mayella was her own father.
