If this is a question from your teacher, and he/she is a bit of a trickster-Mr. Avery has another "claim to fame," from Scout and Jem's viewpoint. For Mr. Avery's not-so-gallant claim to fame, check out the beginning of Chapter 6. Within the first page of the chapter Scout mentions that, "Besides making change in the collection plat every Sunday..." which means he's a bit cheap or frugal. Reading a little bit further there is something even more shocking that he does, "...but a closer inspection revealed an arc of water descending from the leaves and splashing in the yellow circle of the street light...Dill said he must drink a gallon a day..." Basically, the kids caught Mr. Avery taking a bathroom break over the edge of his porch--pretty impressive!
