What does Cecil Jacobs ask Scout about Atticus? And what does Atticus tell Scout to say?
Cecil asks if Atticus is a "radical". Atticus then tells Scout to tell Cecil Jacobs that he is "about as radical as Cotton Tom Heflin."
What does Atticus mean when he says:
"I think I understand," said Atticus. "It might be because he knows in his heart that very few people in Maycomb really believed his and Mayella's yarns. He thought he'd be a hero, but all he got for his pain was... was, okay, we'll convict this Negro but get back to your dump."
He clearly thinks that no one in the town actually believed what Mayella and Bob Ewell claimed during the trial, but because of the amount of prejudice in Maycomb, it didn't even matter. Tom Robinson's conviction was most likely not satisfying enough for Mr. Ewell.
"First thing you can do, Ewell, is get your stinkin' _______ off my property."
