Courage

Atticus

Mad Dog incident

"I haven't shot a gun in 30 years."

Angry Mob

Mrs. Dubose

"It was times like these when I thought my father, who hated guns and had never been to war, was the bravest man who ever lived."

- Scout was amazed how Atticus was such a gentlemen even when it came to Mrs. Dubose (an old rude and bitter lady)

WHATS COURAGE?

"It's when you know your licked before you begin but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what

Atticus was a great example and went through with the advice he gave others:

"Tom was a dead man the minute Mayella Ewell opened her mouth and screamed."

Atticus decided to protect and help Tom even though he knew it would upset a lot of people in the town. By his own definition of real courage he showed real courage by helping Tom even though he knew it would be an unfair and impossible fight to fight because of Tom's skin color/race.

Mr. Link Deas

He rose from the audience to announce:

"I just want the whole lot of you to know one thing right now. That boy's worked for me eight years an' I ain't had a

speck o'trouble out him. Not a speck"

Technique used: Repetition

Mr Link courageously stood up in the public gallery during Tom's trial and yells out in support of Tom.

He risked getting rebuked by the judge and sent out of the courtroom which is
