During the summer when Dill arrived to Maycomb he was intrigued by the mysteriousness of Boo Radley. He brought curiosity among Scout and Jem. Dill, Jem, and Scout invaded Boo Radley's privacy as they kept trying to get Boo to come outside. Atticus began to get very annoyed. The more the kids disobeyed Atticus the more frustrated he got and he snapped one night. Scout and Dill were still very young so he took hs anger out on Jem by slapping him across the face. This continued for a few nights and it will most likely continue.
I overheard Ms.Maudie talking to Jem and Scout about her house burning down. She always wanted something like a fire to happen to her house so she could move on and get a smaller one. The fire was not an accident she wanted this to happen so she ended up setting fire to her house and tried to make it look like an accident.
Atticus is only defending Tom Robinson in court because Calpurnia asked him to. Calpurnia had a love affair with Tom a while back and she really cares for him. The reason behind him saying yes was because she loves Calpurnia. He wishes times were different. Calpurnia is hoping that Tom is released from all charges so they can be together.
