First
quote:
The Radleys, welcome anywhere in town, kept to
themselves, a predilection unforgivable in Maycomb. (9)
Second quote:
"Do you think they're
true, all those things they say about B--Mr. Arthur?""What
things?"I told her.
"That is
three-fourths colored folks and one-fourth Stephanie Crawford," said Miss Maudie grimly.
"Stephanie Crawford even told me once she woke up in the middle of the night and found him
looking in the window at her. I said what did you do, Stephanie, move over in the bed and make
room for him? That shut her up a while." (45)
Third
quote:
Inside the house lived a malevolent phantom. People
said he existed, butand I had never seen him. People said he went out at night when the moon was
down, and peeped in windows. When people's azaleas froze in a cold snap, it was because he had
breathed on them. Any stealthy small crimes committed in Maycomb were his work. Once the town
was terrorized by a series of morbid nocturnal events: people's chickens and household pets were
found mutilated; although the culprit was Crazy Addie, who eventually drowned himself in
Barker's Edd, people still looked at the Radley Place, unwilling to discard their initial
suspicions. (9)
