There were actually two encounters between Bob Ewell and Atticus Finch. The first, which was in court, tells us that Atticus is much the smarter of the two, since he gets Ewell to reveal that he is left-handed. The second, outside the Post Office, tells us that Ewell is a thoroughly evil man who intends to get revenge on Atticus for making it clear that he had been the one who had hurt Mayella.
Jem does not want Scout to tell Atticus about Bob Ewell's comment because he fears that it might upset Atticus and cause trouble. However, it is not wise to keep such important information from Atticus, as he is their father and can handle the situation appropriately. It is important to communicate openly and honestly with trusted adults when dealing with serious matters.
Atticus found out about the children's game involving Boo Radley when Heck Tate mentioned it during Tom Robinson's trial. Tate revealed that he had asked Atticus not to tell the children about Mr. Radley's courage in saving them from Bob Ewell, as it might prompt them to reenact the story. This indicated to Atticus that the children had indeed been playing a game about Boo Radley.
The children tell their teacher that the Ewell children only come to school on the first day because they are needed at home to help with the chores. They also mention that the Ewell children are unkempt and come from a poor and uneducated family.
He doesn't want atticus to feel that he cannot be trusted.
Atticus tells Miss Stephanie that there was a rabid dog entering the neighborhood, and he's going to take care of it. He also instructs her to inform the neighbors to stay indoors and keep their doors locked.
Dill told Atticus that they were just having lunch.
Jem goes with Atticus to tell Tom Robinson is dead
A man generally feels reluctant about the telling of encounter. He fears that their relationship will end because of this. So generally a man does not tell about his encounter.
Atticus and Cal were going to Finch's Landing to tell Aunt Alexandra about Tom's death.
Do you mean the part during the night? If you do, the mob of men, with Mr. Walter Cunningham as their leader, told Atticus to leave because they wanted to beat Mr. Tom Robinson up because they dislike black people and believe Bob Ewell's side of the law case. Atticus was only there to protect Tom from these white people.
Scout tells Calpurnia's account of Atticus allowing her to visit her church to get away from the white community for a while. This creates an argument between Atticus and Alexandra because Atticus believes that Calpurnia deserves his trust and autonomy in raising the children in a way that's best for them, while Alexandra feels that Calpurnia is overstepping her boundaries by taking the children to her church.
