The logical fallacy used in these lines is a <u><em>red herring</em></u> because <em><u>the mention of her skill as a musician is irrelevant to whether Sally would make a good president.</u></em>

A red herring is when one point is presented to try to distract you from another. To distract you from her being good at debates, the person says she is bad at playing the sax (which has nothing to do with being class president).

This logic is incorrect because they're saying Sally would be a bad class president because of her instrument playing, which doesn't have anything to do with being a class president. It mentions she's good at debates, so there's a good chance she would be a good class president.

answer: Greg Ridley is upset because he is doing poorly in school, and he is afraid his dad will not let him play basketball as a result. He goes to an abandoned tenement house to avoid the lecture he knew his father would give him and to get out of the rain. He meets Lemon Brown, who thinks he has come to rob him.

Lemon Brown begins to talk about his treasure, and Greg questions whether someone like him would even have a treasure. Lemon Brown recounts the high points of his life as a blues singer and how he came on hard times.

Some neighborhood thugs show up because they have heard Lemon Brown talking that he has a treasure and they want it. Greg and Brown try to remain quiet so the men will not find them in the dark. While Greg tries to escape up a second flight of stairs, he sees Brown standing at the top of the main ones. He watches as the men demand that he throw down his money. What he does instead is throw himself down the stairs crashing into them. The three men then run away.

Brown agrees to show Greg his treasure, but first they look outside to make sure the men are gone. They see them sitting on a curb looking at their wounds from where he had crashed into them.

Lemon Brown retrieves the old newspaper clippings and an old harmonica to show to Greg. He explains how he sent these things to his son, Jesse, when Jesse went to war. He tells Greg how he traveled a lot when his boy was growing up. When his wife died, the boy went to live with his mom's sister. He sent those things because he wanted his son to know his father had done great things.
