Atticus does not pretend to be better than anyone. He is not racist and does not put on airs. He raises his children with the same standards that he raises himself with. Other people in the town make up long lies that they blame on others, using race as a key part.
The scene now shifts back to the Shelby plantation in Kentucky, where Aunt Chloe has just received the letter Tom wrote her with Little Eva's help. Mrs. Shelby tells her husband about the letter, in which Tom says that although his new family is kind, he still longs to return to his "real home."
Mr. Shelby, in the meantime, has still been plagued by debt. Mrs. Shelby offers to help raise money, especially so that they can buy Tom.
