Mr. Heron

1.Why do you think Betsy was so suspicous about Mr. Heron's letter? 2.Why do you think Sam chose the Patriots when his family are Torys? 3.Tim is stuck between choosing Patriots or Torys for his side? Which side do you think he'll choose?
Mr. Meeker is mistaken for a cattle thief and is shot and killed by rebels on his way back home. This incident deeply affects the Meeker family and contributes to the tensions and conflicts in the novel "My Brother Sam is Dead."
Sam's father, Mr. Meeker, has punished Sam in the past for speaking out by scolding him and sending him on time-consuming errands. Mr. Meeker believes in loyalty to the British Crown and discourages Sam from expressing his opposing views.
The war leads to divisions within Tim's family, with his father and brother joining the Patriots while he sympathizes with the Loyalists. This creates tension and conflict within the family as they are torn apart by their differing loyalties. Additionally, the war brings about hardship and loss for the family, with Sam's death having a profound impact on them.

Sam responds by saying that it's not about knowing better, but about recognizing what is right. He believes that individuals have to stand up for their rights and freedoms, even if it goes against the king and Parliament.
