Chapter 10 LOTF

1. Ralph and Piggy first discuss Simon's brutal death, Piggy tries to persuade Ralph that it was all just an accident. Piggy says, "He hadn't no business creeping like that out of the dark...It was an accident" (Golding 157). Ralph, on the other hand, says it was a savage homicide. The boys had let their savage character out of control. Piggy keeps on insisting him that Simons death  was because of the boys being terrified, yet Ralph says, "I wasn't scared...I was- -I don't recognize what I was" (Golding 156). At that point Samneric join the talk, they persuade themselves that they had no clue what happened that night by saying, "Yes. We were extremely tired...so we left early" (Golding 158). 
2. Ralph is shocked and disturbed by the images of the boys beating Simon to death last night and says, 'That was murder'' (Golding 156). Jack however, believed they had killed the beast that was disguised as Simon and felt no remorse, "He came--disguised. He may come again..." (Golding 160).
3. Jack's request to have Wilfred beaten presents his total control over the boys. Roger asks Robert for what reason Wilfred needs to be beaten, Robert answered, "He didn't say. He got angry and made us tie Wilfred up" (Golding 159) This basically shows how the boys are devoted to what Jack says and what he orders.  After Wilfred was beat by Jack, the other describes him sitting there, "The chief was sitting there, naked to the waist, his face blocked out in white and red. The tribe lay in a semicircle before him" (Golding 160).
