Unsurprisingly

grade
as
she
was

,
but
Jem
promises
her
that
school
gets
better
the

Late
that
fall
,
another
present
appears
in

knothole

two
figures
carved
in

to
resemble
Scout
and
Jem
.
The
figures
are

Maudie
For
the
first
time
in
years
,
Maycomb
endures
a
real
.
There
is
even
light
,
an
event
rare
enough
for
school
to
be
closed
.
Jem
and
Scout
haul
as
much
snow
as
they
could
from
Miss
?
s
yard
to
their
own
.
Since
there
is
not
enough
snow
to
make
a
real
snowman
,
they
build
a
small
figure
out
of
dirt
and
cover
it
with
snow
.
They
make
it
look
like
Mr
.
Avery
,
an
unpleasant
man
who
lives
down
the
street
.
The
figure
?
s
likeness
to
Mr
.
Avery
is
so
strong
that
Atticus
demands
that
they
disguise
it
.
Jem
places
Miss
Maudie
?
s
on
its
head
and
sticks
her
hedge
clippers
in
its
hands
,
much
to
her
chagrin
.
Despite
having
lost
her
house
,
Miss
Maudie
is
cheerful
the
next
day
.
She
tells
the
children
how
much
she
her
old
home
and
that
she
is
already
planning
to
build
a
smaller
house
and
plant
a
larger
garden
.
She
says
that
she
wishes
she
had
been
there
when
Boo
put
the
on
Scout
to
catch
him
in
the
act
.

Robinson
justice
Cecil
At
school
,
Scout
nearly
starts
a
fight
with
a
classmate
named
Jacobs
after
Cecil
uses
an
offensive
racial
slur
to
declare
that
Atticus
defends
Black
people
.
Atticus
has
been
asked
to
defend
Tom
,
a
Black
man
accused
of
raping
a
white
woman
.
It
is
a
case
he
cannot
hope
to
win
,
but
Atticus
tells
Scout
that
he
must
argue
it
to
uphold
his
sense
of
and
self
-
.
At
Christmastime
,
Atticus
?
s
brother
,
Jack
,
comes
to
stay
with
Atticus
for
a
week
during
the
holidays
.
Scout
generally
gets
along
well
with
Uncle
Jack
,
but
when
he
arrives
in
Maycomb
,
she
begins
cursing
in
front
of
him
(
a
habit
that
she
has
recently
picked
up
)
.
After
supper
,
Jack
has
Scout
sit
on
his
lap
and
he
warns
her
not
to
curse
in
his
presence
.
On
Christmas
Day
,
Atticus
takes
his
children
and
Jack
to
Finch
?
s
Landing
,
a
rambling
old
house
in
the
country
where
Atticus
?
s
sister
,
Alexandra
,
and
her
husband
live
.
There
,
Scout
endures
Francis
,
Alexandra
?
s
grandson
,
who
had
been
dropped
off
at
?
s
Landing
for
the
holiday
.
Scout
thinks
Francis
is
the
most
"
boring
"
child
she
has
ever
met
.
She
also
has
to
put
up
with
the
prim
and
proper
,
who
insists
that
Scout
dress
like
a
lady
instead
of
wearing
pants
.

Francis
promises
acquit
word
One
night
,
tells
Scout
that
Dill
is
a
runt
and
then
uses
an
offensive
racial
slur
to
belittle
Atticus
,
who
sympathizes
with
Black
people
.
Scout
curses
Francis
and
beats
him
up
.
Francis
tells
Alexandra
and
Uncle
Jack
that
Scout
hit
him
,
and
Uncle
Jack
spanks
Scout
without
hearing
her
side
of
the
story
.
After
they
return
to
Maycomb
,
Scout
tells
Jack
what
Francis
said
and
Jack
becomes
furious
.
Scout
makes
him
promise
not
to
tell
Atticus
,
however
,
because
Atticus
had
asked
her
not
to
fight
anyone
over
what
is
said
about
him
.
Jack
and
keeps
his
.
Later
,
Scout
overhears
Atticus
telling
Jack
that
Tom
Robinson
is
innocent
but
doomed
,
since
it
?
s
inconceivable
that
an
all
-
white
jury
would
ever
him
.
