To Kill A Mockingbird Chapter 13

Quotations and Themes

"She did not permit Cal to make the delicacies required to sustain the society"

This quote shows the racial stereotypes in the book.

"Aunt Alex fit into Maycomb like a hand in a glove, but never in the world of Jem and me"

This continues the theme of Scout not getting along with her extended family, and how different she is from them.

Allusions and Idioms

"Her missionary society refreshments"

The missionary society is a group of evangelistic societies working with churches founded in 1799.

"Aunt better watch how she talks-scratch most folks in Maycomb and they're kin to us"
