The first clearly pronounced trait depicted by the Ewells is their general coarseness. This trait is evidenced first by the manner of the character Burris Ewell. He has lice crawling through his hair, and is utterly unperturbed by this fact. He is covered in dirt; he is in fact the “filthiest human” Scout has ever seen (Lee 31). He does not…
