1. In writing, create a step by step recording of Scout’s efforts to make a connection with Mr. Cunningham. What do these efforts from Scout reveal about her character?

2. Now reread the passage a second time. What clues are shown about Mr. Cunningham that might explain his eventual decision to leave the jail and take the rest of the men with him?

3. What does Harper Lee show us with the incident at the jailhouse, and how does she suggest that mob mentality can be defeated?

Answer and Explanation:

1. Scout talked to Mr Cunningham primarily because she is embarrassed and nervous. When she sees Atticus confronting the mob in front of the jailhouse, she does not know what was actually wrong, but she instinctively wants to go to her father and by doing so, she finds herself in front of a crowd of unfamiliar faces and she is the center of attention because everyone was watching her.

It is a relief when she finds Mr. Cunningham in the crowd and Her talk with him is simply polite conversation, meant to cover her awkwardness, but his acknowledgement of her means that he can no longer fade into the crowd, and must take responsibility for being present.

2. The passage opens with Scout revealing that she is aware of the tangled state of Mr. Cunningham’s affairs as the only lawyer in town, Atticus would be the person Mr. Cunningham would have sought advice from.He is therefore in debt to Atticus for his services which is a debt that could have only partially been met through the gesture of giving Scout’s family hickory nuts, which signals his impoverished state. Scout also went ahead to as well reveals that Cunningham’s son Walter has shared the midday meal with her family in the past, revealing that the kindness Atticus has shown to the father through his encouraging advice and has also been extended to his son. Ultimately the cumulative weight of recollecting these small acts of kindness by Atticus and Scout moves Mr. Cunningham to relent and disperse the crowd of vigilantes with him.

today we'd use social media to quickly spread a controversial idea, but in the eighteenth century, the printed pamphlet was highly effective. and thomas paine took full advantage of it. on january 9, 1776, when paine published his pamphlet, "common sense," he wanted to push the american people toward independence from britain. it ultimately ignite the american revolution. thomas paine argued that the monarchy was evil and should be rejected as a form of government. to underscore his point, he cited the bible to argue his case -- in judges 8: 22-23: "the israelites said to gideon, 'rule over us, you and your son and your ' gideon told them, 'i will not rule over you. the lord will rule over you'" (nrsv).
