There were sharp pains, and sudden dizziness, and then profuse bleeding at the pores, with dissolution. The scarlet stains upon the body and especially upon the face of the victim, were the pest ban which shut him out from the aid and from the sympathy of his fellow men. And the whole seizure, progress and termination of the disease, were the incidents of half an hour.

When a class both extends and implements, by convention the ____ clause follows the extends clause in the class header?
Mnenie [13.5K]
The correct answer is implements.
In the case where there are both the implements and the extends clause present in the class header, the convention is that the first one should be the implements clause, followed by the extends clause.
This makes sense because you first need to implement the meaning you want to talk about, and then you will extend upon it later.

Why do they decide to wait until nightfall to peek into radley house?
Basile [38]
So they won't be seen; so Atticus will be busy reading; because if they were killed they'd miss school instead of vacation and because it is easier to see inside a dark house in the dark rather than in the daytime.
