The smoke that Samuel saw was unusual because it was so wide and so dark. In the text it says " would not make such a dark, wide smoke that could be seen from.... how far." In the text it also says "forest fires? but it wasn't really that dry and there had been know thunderstorms , the normal cause of forest fires. That' how the smoke was unusual. What did Samuel decide to do?  Samuel decided to run as fast as he could to his settelment and tryed to make himself think that his parents were ok. for the part that i said he decided to run as fast as he could in the book it says " he'd made good time, running hard until his lungs seemed to be on fire."  For the part i said he tryed to make himself think his parents were ok evendience for that is " an attack on his home... an attack on his mother and father?" That is what samuel decided to do.

The smoke  Samuel saw was unusual because Samuel had no idea where the smoke was coming from and how it didn't all add up to come to a 100% knowing of where it was coming from. Let me explain,so first he felt something different about the woodland, then he smelled smoke, but he didn't know the cause of the smoke, next it was really thick and heavy like it was near him or something but he just could feel it like it was near him. Lastly, it was really wide and it was like it was a huge fire or attack. What Samuel decided to do was to go home and make sure his Mom and Dad was Okay and nothing happened to them. But when he got there, it was a huge mess. The he realized, our village was the thing that got attacked.

The smoke Samuel saw in chapter 3 was unusual because it was very wide and very dark. It was wide and dark because from the text it says,"Smoke that would show that dark and that wide from eight miles away on a clear, windless day had to be intentional. He frowned, looking at the smoke, willing it to not be what was coming from his mind like a dark snake, a slithering horror." That tells how the smoke cloud was unusual. Samuel decided to go and check out what the smoke cloud was coming from because it might be coming from his house. Samuel went to go see where the smoke cloud is coming from because from the text it says," Home. An attack on his home. An attack on his mother and father? And he had not been there to help." That proves that Samuel's home or settlement may have been attacked and his mother and father might have been killed in the process

The smoke was unusual because it wasn't that dry and there had been no thunderstorms lately. In the text it states"automatically looking for a turn or shift that would take him more directly home." So he thought that the smoke had been smoke from where his village is. And he was right because when he got to what was his village he saw that it had all been destroyed by British solders who had killed the people that had lived there.

The smoke that Samuel saw was unusual because it was to wide for the smoke to be like because the grass was really hard to burn and it gets wide when grass starts to burn down. He couldn't tell if it was his house or a person he know was burning down some trees that he chopped down and wanted to burn them down to make room for land. Samuel started to run to the fire because the fire was near his mom's and dad's house where they live all together as a family and his friends that he new very much about.The reason he ran to the fire to make sure that his parents are safe and not killed by the war that he thought has finally came to the wilderness where a lot of people lived to stay away from the city.I say this because I would be scared to see a fire near my house when I am not home to protect and get them out of the house.
