He was ever so polite and friendly. He was hunting the Great White Heron and had hoped she or her family might put him up for the evening. In a nice sort of way he was pushy and insistent. Not used to interacting with many people, the reader can see it would have been a difficult situation for her to handle any other way. Rather, it handled her.

It took a few small but significant words from Scout to convert Cunninghams's way of thinking to a more normal fashion. "Let's clear out" was all it took form Cunningham to remove the men, and go home. Similarly in the courtroom, another moral dilemma arose: this time within the jury.
