Answer:
-Judge Taylor appointed Atticus to the case.
-Mr. Underwood writes an editorial criticizing the verdict.
Explanation:
In the <em>To Kill a Mockingbird </em>novel by Harper Lee, Tom Robinson was a decent African American man who had been accused of committing a crime mainly due to racial prejudice.
Throughout the story, Scout, (the narrator) tells us that Tom Robison got support mainly by the church members he used to attend to, who collected money to help his wife and his children economically, from Mr. Underwood (the owner and editor of Maycomb's newspaper) who wrote an article criticizing the verdict and from Atticus, a lawyer with a strong sense of morality and justice that did all he could to defend him on court. Likewise, Judge Taylor, being aware of Atticus's personality, indirectly supported Tom Robison by appointing Atticus to the case, even when Atticus didn't normally have to defend that type of cases in Maycomb.
The other options never happened in the story: A collection was not taken up for Tom Robison appeal, but for his family; and Miss Maudie never invited the Robinson family to her house, even though she believed Robison was innocent.
