To Kill a Mockingbird In reference to Dill, what pessimistic note does Dolphus Raymond cast what is the implication of the remark? Asked by bookragstutor 13 years ago 8/20/2012 10:23 AM Last updated by anonymous 13 years ago 9/12/2012 8:28 PM
Dill is upset because of the way Tom is being spoken to. Dolphus tells Dill that he'd better get used to the way blacks are treated by whites. This seems to indicate that Dolphus has no great belief in the ability of society to change.
