When Atticus was talking about Jem killing Boo Radley, the thought that Boo might have killed Bob Ewell evidently crossed his mind. But he didn't want to spill out anything because if Boo Radley's voice got around the neighborhood, then it would make a bad impresson on him and he would perhaps get arrested and therefore the Maycomb's town would always gossip about him.Atticus, clearly knowing the situation, knew that this would be a hard problem for an old, weak man to handle. So he preferred hiding this problem, and clear the situation by thinking of possible different ideas.
