There are multiple things that were mysterious about Boo Radley in chapters 4-8. First, Boo Radley stitched up Jem's pants and put them back in the place that he ripped them. "When I went back, they were folded across the fence... like they were expectin' me." (Page 58) Also, he put things in the tree knot hole and gave the boys things like gum and soap. This shows that Boo Radley can have a nice side and that he does care about people.
Miss Maudie and Scout had a conversation about Boo Radley and I believe that Miss Maudie likes Boo Radley. I believe she thinks he stays in the house because he wants to and she states, "Arthur Radley just stays in the house, that's all," said Miss Maudie . "Wouldn't you stay in the house if you didn't want to come out?" (p 44) This tells me that Miss Maudie likes Boo and tries to look at things from his perception. I also think Atticus likes Boo Radley and stands up for him. He tells the kids not to make fun of Mr. Radley which tells me he is a respectful man.
