In the given excerpt from "Editha" by William Dean Howell, the expression "to think of your having such a tragedy in your life" is an example of the use of an ironic tone, because the woman doesn't really think that war is a tragedy.
The Mockingbird could be a symbol of peace and harmony. They say in the text that "Mockingbirds don't do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don't eat up peoples gardens, don't nest in corncribs, they don't do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That's why it's a sin to kill a mockingbird.<span>" The Mockingbird's leave them alone and they leave them alone. The birds sing for them every morning and stay out of the way, so why kill them? So to me they symbolize peace and harmony. </span>
