Jenny brings up a great point about the whole story being ironic (Situational irony). The irony is definitely there. It makes me wonder about what would have happened to grandison's family if they had never run away, or if they had been caught?
I think that Grandison's family would have been severely punished infront of the other slaves had they been caught.
I also feel that Tom, Grandison's brother, is the whole reason why they were able to run away, even though grandison was the one who had been left behind and came back to get the rest of his family. It's possible that Tom talked to Grandison before he left with Dick. There are so many possibilities as to where this story could have gone and ended, or just how things went. I hope that that makes sense.
It's always fun to think about what happened behind the scenes of a story. There are so many possibilities, that leave the reader in the dark when they think about it, but it also leaves it to the reader's imagination.
