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.
Atticus visits the Radley house to pay his respects upon the death of Mrs. Radley. Scout and Jem suspect that Boo caused her death and are eager to prove their theory. They are disappointed to learn from Atticus that she died of natural causes. Then Scout asks Atticus if he "saw Mr. Arthur." Atticus sternly replies, "I did not." That is all she hears about it.

Dill, Jem, Simon Finch, Atticus, John Hale Finch, Calpurnia, Mrs. Henry Lafayette Dubose, Mr. Radley, Boo Radley, Mrs. Radley, Mr. Conner, Miss Stephanie Crawford, Nathan Radley, and Scout are introduced in the first chapter.
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.
Atticus.
