By the end of the novel, Hiram understands his father's apprehensions over grandfather. Hiram sees his grandfather for what he is: a bigot and a murderer. This is disheartening for Hiram, but it brings him closer to the truth about the American South as well as the horrible treatment of African Americans. I think Hiram appreciates his father much more by the end of the story and rejects his grandfather.
