Jackson, Shirley "The Lottery" The Lottery and Other Services

• The villagers of a small town gather together in the square on June 27, a beautiful day, for the town lottery.
•  In other towns, the lottery takes longer, but there are only 300 people in this village, so the lottery takes only two hours. 
• Village children, who have just finished school for the summer, run around collecting stones. They put the stones in their pockets and make a pile in the square. Men gather next, followed by the women. Parents call their children over, and families stand together.
