2. **Personification**
- *“Maycomb was an old town, but it was a tired, old town.”*

3. **Simile**
- *“It was times like these when I thought my father, who hated guns and had never been to any wars, was the bravest man who ever lived.”*

4. **Foreshadowing**
- *“The one thing that doesn’t abide by majority rule is a person’s conscience.”*

5. **Hyperbole**
