Atticus tells the men to be quiet because Mr. Robinson was sleeping in his jail cell. This is the sickening comic aspect since the men are there to kill Tom so whether or not he's sleeping makes no difference. Also the respect Atticus is asking the men to give Tom by being quiet is comical since they all start talking in whispers.
Their behavior shows that the men respect Atticus and individually are decent people. This shows that Atticus has power over the men and knows how to defuse what could be a very difficult situation. By having the men comply with his request for them to speak quietly, he is more likely to convince them to abandon their goal for the night.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

analyze the effectiveness of this excerpt. how does it function within the speech as a whole? how does the structure of the excerpt to convey the speech's purpose and key points? support your argument with evidence from the speech. (10 points)
