  1. Who does Atticus think caused Bob Ewell's death?
    Atticus thinks that Jem stabbed Bob Ewell and killed him trying to protect himself and Scout but the sheriff Heck Tate thinks that Bob fell onto his knife and killed himself. Heck convinces Atticus into thinking that he fell onto his knife and killed himself.

  2. 4-Is Heck Tate right to spare Boo then publicity of an inquest? Give reasons for your answer.

    I think Heck tate is right to spear Boo the publicity, i think this becuase Boo Radley has been inside for many years. I would think a lot of people would have had a lot of questions for Boo. Therefore causing a swarm. This is why Heck most lickly wanted to save Boo from the publicity.

  4. Why does Heck Tate insist that Bob Ewells death was a self-inflicted? In what way is this part true?

    Heck Tate insisted that Bob Ewells death was self-inflicted because he doesn't want Jem going to court and going through with all the drama. It's partly true because Bob Ewell did fall and the knife was in him right where he had fallen.

  5. How does the writer handle the appearance, at the end of the story, of Boo Radley?

    Arthur (Boo) Radley was following Jem and Scout in the dark on chapter 28 then killed Bob Ewell when Bob Ewell tries to attack them. At the end when Arthur is in the Finches house he hides behind the door and Atticus doesn't offer him a chair. Yet we can see that Arthur still cares about people because he pets Jem (which is a pretty funny scene in the movie). The author shows that Arthur hides in his house, not because his father locks him in there, but because he is sort of scared of people and is shy in his ways. However there is some irony when Arthur asks Scout to walk her home because it is if he is afraid of the dark much like a child yet he has just killed Bob Ewell to save Jem.
