The people from Cals church.
Atticus tries to support Tom Robinson's family after his death by bringing them food, visiting them, and offering words of comfort. He also serves as their legal counsel during the trial and fights for justice on Tom's behalf.
Scout found out what happened at Tom Robinson's house by following Atticus to the jail where a group of men were attempting to harm Tom. She, Jem, and Dill arrived just in time to witness Atticus diffusing the situation with his calm demeanor and determination.
No, not at all; instead, Atticus fears the racism in town will prevent justice. He rests on his principles and beliefs in right and wrong. He uses logic, and trusting Tom when Tom insists on lines of questioning. He hopes for a not guilty verdict... but he could not be certain of it happening even though he believed Tom.
Atticus explains to Jem that Tom Robinson has a very slim chance of being acquitted due to the racial prejudices in Maycomb. He wants Jem to understand that despite evidence showing Tom's innocence, the jury may still convict him because of their biases. Atticus emphasizes the importance of fighting for justice even when the odds are stacked against them.
Just about the time Scout decides that she prefers the company of men, Atticus interrupts the meeting with the news that Tom Robinson has been killed in an attempted escape. In the kitchen, Atticus asks Calpurnia to accompany him to give the news to Tom's wife, Helen.
