This story shows the confederate side from a heroic point of view. Did the story make you empathize with their side? Did you enjoy that about the story?

JOB #1- LINE ILLUMINATOR

"No service was too humble for him to perform in the aid of the South, no adventure too perilous for him to undertake if consistent with the character of a civilian who was at heart a soldier, and who in good faith and without too much qualification assented to at least a part of the frankly villainous dictum that all is fair in love and war." (Chapter II)                    

                This quote is imperative to the story because it tells us about Farquhar's character and where his loyalties lie. He is a hardworking man who spends his days working on a farm, but dreams of fighting for what he believes in. Farquhar's core belief is doing what he believes to be right, not considering the consequences or who is hurt in the process. Hence the quote, "all is fair in love and war." This article is a foreshadowing to his actions in the next chapter, where he risks his life and safety of his family for the confederates. Do you agree with his moral compass?
