In the text it says "on the husbands face was a look such as his friend the sergeant might have carried into his first action." (The sergeant's first action refers to his first battle)
Using the quote from the text, answer the following questions:
1. Describe the look on the husband's face in your own words.
2. How does this comparison (the husband's face to the sergeant's first action) help the readers to
understand the effect of the news on Mr. White?
