I am interested in researching the urban legend of John Henry. The legend of John Henry is about an African American male who manually works on a railroad with a hammer and was proud of his work. Others working on the railroad could not match or exceed John Henrys capabilities as it pertained to hammering railroad spikes.

What would you do if someone spit on you, cursed at you, and threatened to kill you? In the novel To Kill a Mockingbird, in Chapter 22, Atticus Finch is faced with this decision. As he was leaving the post office, Bob Ewell approached him. Angry and upset that Atticus had publicly humiliated him, Mr. Ewell proceeded to spit on, curse at, and threaten to kill Atticus. Without batting an eyelash, Atticus pulled out his handkerchief and did not retaliate. When Ewell asked if Atticus was too proud to fight, Atticus responded by saying, “No, too old.” Miss. Stephanie Crawford tells this to Jem and Scout who initially seem indifferent. They don't believe that Atticus was brave by walking away from Bob Ewell, and they even start to get worried for him. Jem and Scout start to take little interest in everyday activities and they stop eating. Realizing how deeply frightened his children were, Atticus confronts Jem about, and in doing so, allows Jem to understand Bob Ewell's reasoning behind what he had done.
