Answer:
President Andrew Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act in 1830 to relocate Native Indians to the west. In his "On Indian Removal" speech, he discusses how Indian Removal benefits both Indians and White Americans. A personal story about a young boy being relocated with his clan on the Trail of Tears is another writing about Native American removal. Though these two readings deal with the same subject, they use quite different language to express their views on Native American removal. The situation is described differently in both pieces, as is the sentence structure and tone. The language differences between Jackson's "On Indian Removal" and Rutledge's "Samuel's Memory" show how separate groups viewed and were affected by Indian removal.

Answer:
Miss Spink gave her "a stone with a hole [that] went all the way through the middle of [it]. This stone helped her see through all things that were hidden by the "Other Mother".
Explanation:
Neil Gaiman's novella "Coraline" evolves around the story of Coraline and the parallel universe she discovered in her new home. And in that parallel universe, she has to fight an evil "Other Mother", the parallel character of her mother in the other universe, if she wants to keep her family safe.
Miss Spink was another tenant in the same building as Coraline and her family. When reading the tea leaves from Coraline's teacup, Miss Spink and Miss Forcible revealed that she is in danger. Miss Spink then gave her a <em>"stone with a hole [that] went all the way through the middle of the stone"</em>. The stone that Miss Spink gave her was to help keep her safe from danger. And this stone helped her see through things, unmasking everything hidden by the "Other Mother".
