"
Are
we
poor
,
Atticus
?
"
Atticus
nodded
.
"
We
are
indeed
.
"
Jem
’
s
nose
wrinkled
.
"
Are
we
as
poor
as
the
Cunninghams
?
"
"
Not
exactly
.
The
Cunninghams
are
country
folks
,
farmers
,
and
the
crash
hit
them
hardest
.
"
Atticus
said
professional
people
were
poor
because
the
farmers
were
poor
.
As
Maycomb
County
was
farm
country
,
nickels
and
dimes
were
hard
to
come
by
for
doctors
and
dentists
and
lawyers
.
Entailment
was
only
a
part
of
Mr
.
Cunningham
’
s
vexations
.
The
acres
not
entailed
were
mortgaged
to
the
hilt
,
and
the
little
cash
he
made
went
to
interest
.
If
he
held
his
mouth
right
,
Mr
.
Cunningham
could
get
a
WPA
job
,
but
his
land
would
go
to
ruin
if
he
left
it
,
and
he
was
willing
to
go
hungry
to
keep
his
land
and
vote
as
he
pleased
.
Mr
.
Cunningham
,
said
Atticus
,
came
from
a
set
breed
of
men
.
As
the
Cunninghams
had
no
money
to
pay
a
lawyer
,
they
simply
paid
us
with
what
they
had
.
"
Did
you
know
,
"
said
Atticus
,
"
that
Dr
.
Reynolds
works
the
same
way
?
He
charges
some
folks
a
bushel
of
potatoes
for
delivery
of
a
baby
.
Miss
Scout
,
if
you
give
me
your
attention
I
’
ll
tell
you
what
entailment
is
.
Jem
’
s
definitions
are
very
nearly
accurate
sometimes
.
"
If
I
could
have
explained
these
things
to
Miss
Caroline
,
I
would
have
saved
myself
some
inconvenience
and
Miss
Caroline
subsequent
mortification
,
but
it
was
beyond
my
ability
to
explain
things
as
well
as
Atticus
,
so
I
said
,
"
You
’
re
shamin
’
him
,
Miss
Caroline
.
Walter
hasn
’
t
got
a
quarter
at
home
to
bring
you
,
and
you
can
’
t
use
any
stovewood
.
"
Miss
Caroline
stood
stock
still
,
then
grabbed
me
by
the
collar
and
hauled
me
back
to
her
desk
.
"
Jean
Louise
,
I
’
ve
had
about
enough
of
you
this
morning
,
"
she
said
.
"
You
’
re
starting
off
on
the
wrong
foot
in
every
way
,
my
dear
.
Hold
out
your
hand
.
"
I
thought
she
was
going
to
spit
in
it
,
which
was
the
only
reason
anybody
in
Maycomb
held
out
his
hand
:
it
was
a
time
-
honored
method
of
sealing
oral
contracts
.
Wondering
what
bargain
we
had
made
,
I
turned
to
the
class
for
an
answer
,
but
the
class
looked
back
at
me
in
puzzlement
.
Miss
Caroline
picked
up
her
ruler
,
gave
me
half
a
dozen
quick
little
pats
,
then
told
me
to
stand
in
the
corner
.
A
storm
of
laughter
broke
loose
when
it
finally
occurred
to
the
class
that
Miss
Caroline
had
whipped
me
.
