Boo Radley. It's explained later in the novel.
Boo Radley, a reclusive neighbor, is leaving gifts for the children in the knot hole of a tree. He does so as a gesture of friendship and kindness, despite his reputation as a mysterious and reclusive figure in the neighborhood.
Atticus did not explicitly agree with Mr. Radley's opinion of the hole in the tree. However, he acknowledges that Mr. Radley may have filled the hole to prevent gifts from strangers reaching Boo. Atticus respects Mr. Radley's decision, understanding the need to protect Boo's privacy.
According to Jem, Boo Radley was responsible for putting the cement in the tree hole and stopping the delivery of gifts to Jem and Scout. Jem believes Boo did this to prevent them from further connecting with him and to protect them from potential harm.
In "To Kill a Mockingbird," Jem discovers that someone has left gifts for him and Scout in the knothole of the tree by Boo Radley's house. When Nathan Radley fills the knothole with cement, Jem is heartbroken because he realizes that Boo Radley was the one leaving them gifts, indicating that he has been watching over them and cares for them.
The tree was cut down by the property owner, Nathan Radley, who believed that the gifts left by Boo were a threat to the children. This event shook Jem and Scout as they realized the gravity of the situation and how misunderstood Boo Radley was by the townspeople.
In "To Kill a Mockingbird," the Knot Hole is a small knothole in a tree near the Radley house where Boo Radley leaves small gifts for Scout and Jem. The gifts symbolize Boo's attempt to connect and communicate with the children despite his reclusive nature. The Knot Hole serves as a representation of empathy, kindness, and human connection in the story.
