One was he took off his suit jacket.... I need to double check the other.

What is the other thing ? can you check please ?

The kids also never saw Atticus sweat...

"Then he took off his glasses and wiped them, and we saw another “first”: we had never seen him sweat—he was one of those men whose faces never perspired, but now it was shining tan" (Chap 20).

Hope that helps :)
