Papa's solution would have to be considered wise because it saved TJ's life. Fortunately, the fire didn't destroy everything he had in the process. Had he not started the fire in the field, which in turn, distracted everyone involved, TJ most likely would have been killed. His only alternative would have been to do nothing..... to allow the men to hang TJ without a trial.
