Questions
42. The hints that Beatty gave Montag were sending the mechanical hound around his house.
43. Mildred brought the books back from the garden.
44. The people who turned in the alarm to Montag were Mildred and her friends.
45. Montag’s green bullet fell out of his ear and Beatty took it.
46. Montag burned Beatty’s body because he was going to arrest him and kill Faber.
47. Montag’s plan to escape is to go live in the hills.
48. Montag gave Faber 450 dollars.
49. The mechanical hound can remember 10,000 scents.
50. Montag had Faber turn the sprinklers and air conditioner on because he wanted to get rid of scent to break the trail.
51. What Montag meant by Twenty Million Montag’s running, is that if all of the people in the city looked outside they would be as helpful as 20 million cameras, so he had to run fast.
52. The search for Montag veered inland because that is the direction the hound went after loosing Montag’s trail.
53. The person who died in Montag’s place was an innocent man who had to die so the police would not look stupid.
54. What Granger meant when he said welcome back from the dead was supposed to mean that Montag is supposed to be dead but he is alive and now freed from bad records.
55. Why incriminating evidence is not found on Granger and the others is that they are bums not on record.
56. I do have a sense that there are other book chapters in other towns because Granger said he had a chapter of a book and another chapter of the book was in a town in Maine.
57. I really don’t know what was meant by this quote from Granger because Montag is something, I mean you can’t be nothing unless you are dead, But Montag is supposed to be dead, so I think this is where he got that he is nothing. He wants Montag to not be noticed or get attention.
58. One of the very first events in the last pages is the bombing and the men scarred to death clawing at the floor and yelling. They think they are going to die but they are lucky. Then there was a fruit tree that resembled the fruit as survivors and the leaves as Montag and his friends as the people will rebuild and regain control.

Journals for Fahrenheit 451 up to end of book

1 March 2008
“I wonder if they are the ones who killed Clarisse.” Pg.128
Well this is hard to decide. I mean if you see a couple crazy people it does not mean that they are the reason for someone you knew being killed. Montag overreacted when this happened because there is more than a few crazy teenagers in cars. The worst thing for Montag to have done is chase the kids down and question them.
1 March 2008
Why would Montag put books in someone else’s house so it could be burnt down? Pg.130
I guess Montag did not really, as if the Black’s and didn’t want to be alone on being a bad fireman. However, to do something as rotten as Montag just did, he deserves to go to jail and rot. He not only murdered people himself, but is making the firemen murder for him. As of now, my perspective on Montag has changed. I don’t like him anymore.
3 March 2008
Why are they burning all the stuff Montag touched? Pg.135
The reason why they are burning everything Montag touched was because they want to get rid of Montags scent. The Mechanical Hound can hold ten thousand different smells and Montag is on the top of the list. Therefore, it would be very important for the two to destroy all of his scent. Hopefully it works.
3 March 2008
Why does everyone open there doors? Pg.139
Why the government has on the TV explaining the plan to catch Montag is very clever, but easy to fail. If it is late at night and people are scared and sleeping no one will bother to try this. However if everyone did do this Montag probably would have been caught. Montag got lucky this time.
4 March 2008
Why aren’t the men scarred of Montag? Pg.147
The reason why the men have no fear for Montag is that the men probably see good in him. Montag just got carried away too much and the men realize this. The men said told him that they knew that he would be harmless and friendly and he was. So I think these men are excepting him even though he has done some horrible stuff.
4 March 2008
Why are police accusing the innocent man for Montag? Pg.149
Why the police killed they innocent man is because they lost Montag’s trail. The police did not want to admit they failed so they had to kill someone. I guess that this is just one of those things the government has to do in order to stay in control of the people. This is very cruel and mean though, I hope the man in charge is very ashamed in himself.
5 March 2008
Word of mouth book passing. Pg.153
I really do not think that this will last long. It is so stupid, it is not like the book is a sort story. How could someone possibly memorize that much stuff. All of the details and all of the foreshadowing. I do not think that this would ever work unless they actually copied the book word for word.
5 March 2008
Welcome back from the dead. Question
When Granger says this, I totally understand what he is trying to say. He has been kill to all of the people in the town, so it is as if he is gone. So as of now Montag was just sort of freed. The police didn’t want to admit their hound is not smart so they set up a guy and kill him. It is just as simple as that.
6 March 2008
The city fell down dead. Pg.160
What that is being described here is that the city is coming to a end. Bombs are striking everywhere and the city is crumbling down like dominoes. Before people have the chance to realize what is even happening they are dead, gone, demolished. The war was started and the war was ended in a split second.
6 March 2008
What does Montag mean that this the one he will save for the city? Pg.165
What Montag is trying to say is that they will have to give a lot of help to make the city built up again and grow. The living fruit resembles the people still alive and the leaves resemble Montag and his friends, helping the people that have been injured. So after all Montag is a good person.
