In Harper Lee's "To Kill a Mockingbird," Jem was sent home after dark because he and Scout were returning from the Halloween pageant, and their father, Atticus Finch, wanted to ensure their safety. The neighborhood had been experiencing some unsettling events, and Atticus was concerned for his children's well-being. Additionally, it highlights the theme of childhood innocence and the protective nature of parents.
