In my opinion, Cole's mother chose to stay silent because she was afraid. Possibly, she believed that she would be beaten as a result.

Cole’s mother dusted imaginary specks off her dress, then picked up the feather hesitantly. She opened her mouth to speak, but a quick glance at her husband brought a frightened look to her eyes. She quickly passed the feather on to Garvey without saying anything.
