To Kill A Mockingbird Chapters 12-15 After Reading Connection Questions

Dill refuses a direct order from Atticus to leave. Dill would not leave his father's side. Scout is able to diffuse the situation after kicking a man in his "mid area" when he grabs her. The children could of course not put up a fight against these men but their refusal to leave Atticus was brave indeed.
