The story

Benjamin abstains, fearing war against Great Britain and not wanting to force others to fight when he himself would not.

Tavington press gangs the Martins' African-American former slaves into the army and arrests Gabriel as a spy.

Gabriel rejoins the Continentals, and Benjamin soon follows, leaving the younger children in the care of his sister-in-law, Charlotte.
