If you mean literal theft of goods, yes. But I have to wonder is that what the question is asking? I think it is referring to a remark Atticus made to Scout after a farmer left a bag of hickory nuts on their back porch. Scout made him come say hello to Atticus. After the farmer left her father told Scout not to do that again. The man owed Atticus money for some legal work but had no money and because of the depression. The farmer paid the only way he could. Her father told her the farmer was doing the best he could, but he was a proud man, without meaning to Scout had shamed him. "Dignity is all he has left, if you steal that he has nothing"

also, later in the book Mr. Ewells tries to steal from Judge Taylor, but he fails because Judge Taylor was home

How is Calpurnia from Julius Caesar related to the Calpurnia in To Kill a Mockingbird?

Calpurnia was the wife of Julius Caesar and before his assassination, she had dreams of omens and death in general pertaining to Julius Caesar. She warned him not to go to the Senate House, (which is where the deed was to be done by the conspirators.) In to Kill a Mockingbird, Calpurnia was the cook of the Finch family, however, she was treated as an equal. Caplurnia was literate and taught Scout to read and write. She is very smart and this is how I believe Calpurnia from Julius Caesar and Calpurnia from To kill a Mockingbird relate, other than their names of course. xD
