A modern Jew's harpAtticus kept his talent to shoot as a marksman hidden from his children, now Scout and Jem can say that his nickname was "One-Shot Finch".
Atticus is no hypocrite. "The main one is if I didn't I couldn't hold up my head in town I couldn't represent this county in the legislative". He is a dedicated hard worker, If he wants to do something he does it, if he believes it is the right thing to do " simply because we were licked a hundred years before we started is no reason for us not to try to win". Atticus defends black people, this makes the whole town say bad things about him like "nigger lover". Even his family doesn't approve, they say that they won't be able to walk the streets of Maycomb again. Atticus decides to ignore his family.
