He meant that Tom Robinson would probably get the death penalty, but Atticus wanted everyone to know that Tom was being unfairly accused and that it was injust to accuse him just because he was black.
In the book "To Kill a Mockingbird," Francis describes Atticus as a "Stray dog." He uses this term as an insult to show his disdain for Atticus' defense of Tom Robinson, and to suggest that Atticus is going against his own family by doing so.
Atticus Finch in "To Kill a Mockingbird" is a symbolic character of moral integrity and justice. He embodies principles of equality, compassion, and bravery in the face of prejudice and injustice. Through his defense of Tom Robinson, Atticus represents the struggle for righteousness in a society plagued by racism and intolerance.
He is somewhere in his 50's. This is why during the book Jem and Scout think he is older than all the other kids dads, and that Atticus doesn't do anything cool that the other younger dads can do.In the book it says Atticus Finch is "nearly fifty"So I'm going to go with 49.Merry Christmas :)
Atticus and Cal were going to Finch's Landing to tell Aunt Alexandra about Tom's death.
In To Kill a Mockingbird, Atticus Finch is a white lawyer who defends a black man of rape. He took on the case because he knew that a black man was not going to get a fair trial in those days.
Atticus makes a bargain with Scout that he will continue reading with her every night if she agrees to continue going to school. This deal serves as motivation for Scout to maintain her education and continue learning.
Atticus sits by the jailhouse to protect Tom Robinson from a lynching mob. He knows the mob is coming to harm Tom, so he positions himself there to prevent any violence from happening. It showcases Atticus's commitment to justice and doing what is right, even in the face of danger.
Herodes Atticus died in 177.
Tom's sentence was death by electric chair. Atticus was going to try to appeal to the higher court, but Tom was shot (as he was trying to escape from jail) before that could happen
Because Atticus was trying to defend Tom Robinson and protect the mob from causing harm to him. They even had to change him to another jail because of the people of Maycomb trying to get at him. (They weren't so much after Atticus as they were trying to get him out of the picture, in order to hurt Tom Robinson...) I hope this helps a little :)
