To describe Mr. Radley in Harper Lee's novel "To Kill a Mockingbird," you can gather information from various parts of the book. Mr. Radley, known as Arthur "Boo" Radley, is a reclusive character who lives in the Radley house, which is described as dark and eerie. He rarely leaves his home and is the subject of many rumors and speculations among the townspeople.

Throughout the story, Boo Radley's presence is mysterious and elusive. He is seen as a source of fear and curiosity for the children in the neighborhood, particularly Jem and Scout Finch. Boo Radley becomes somewhat of an enigma and a symbol of the unknown or misunderstood.

As for the second question regarding Jem's thank you to their mysterious benefactor, it refers to an incident later in the story. After a few significant events occur in the lives of Jem, Scout, and their friend Dill, they begin to suspect that Boo Radley has been secretly leaving them small tokens and treasures in the hollow of the tree near his house.

To show their gratitude, Jem and Scout make an effort to leave a thank-you note for Boo Radley. However, when they go to deliver the note, they discover that Mr. Radley has patched up the hole in the tree with cement. This action represents Mr. Radley's desire for privacy and isolates Boo Radley even more from the outside world.

Ultimately, Jem's thank-you gesture remains unresolved, leaving the reader to speculate about Boo Radley's intentions and feelings. The incident emphasizes the theme of understanding and compassion towards those who may be misunderstood or judged by society.
