What clue is given as the jury enters the courtroom that prepares Scout for the verdict?
Chapter 21, to kill a mocking bird

As the jury enters the courtroom after deliberating, Scout notices that none of the jury members look at Tom Robinson, which indicates that they found him guilty. Scout remembers her father telling her, "A jury never looks at a defendant it has convicted..." (Lee, 214). Scout knows immediately by the jurors' body language that Tom Robinson will be wrongly convicted.

the correct answer option for this is: false.

explanation:

we are given the following statement 'hawthorne thought of himself as a novelist' which is false.

the truth is that nathaniel hawthorne thought of himself as a romancer, rather than a novelist.

though it is ironic of him of him to consider himself a romancer rather than a novelist despite of the innocent women killings in the salem witch trials which occurred in colonial massachusetts between 1692 and 1693 .
