CH+15-16

At the begining of Ch15, Dill is given permission to stay at the Finch's. Mr.Heck Tate and a group of people from town come to confront Atticus about the trial of Tom. Jem thinks they are about to jump Atticus and tells Atticus that the phone is ringing. That sunday Atticus meets some people at church and learns that Tom is transfered to the Maycome jail. Atticus goes out that night and Jem, Scout and Dill go after him. When they get to town the find Atticus sitting in front of the jail. Then four cars with a lot of men show up they want to get into the jail and I can only assume that they intented to harm Tom. Scout, Jem and Dill go to Atticus and realize that they dont recognise any of the people trying to get into the jail. Scout then sees Mr.Cunningham and tries to talk to him. Atticus tries to get Jem to take the kids home but he won't leave without his father. In the end the mob left without causing any harm. Atticus is happy that nothing happened to him or his family. The next morning people from all over arive in town to see the trial including the kids who had to sneek in. After a little while everyone goes inside to start the trial. When Scout, Jem and Dill finally find seats, Mr.Heck Tate is begining his testimony.

What is the deal with Dolphus Raymond? Why is he brought up? Do the kids respect him? Why do they also have the opinions of the community?
