I got Huck back from the Grangerfords today. Just as Jack said, the Grangerfords and Shepherdsons got into a fight. ‘Dere was shooting and hollerin’ all over the place. I was scared ‘dat Huck got caught up and was bein’ fired at too. I thought it might be too late and I was gonna’ go downriver again, when by George, here comes Huck through the swamp! He ran up to me, scared silly and as glad to see me as I was to him, and we boarded the raft I fixed up and set off downstream again. When he wasn’t so spooked, he finally told me about what happened.

He told me them Grangerfords had a fancy place, furniture all over that was so expensive and paintings done by this one girl. It must have been something to impress that chile. He met this other kid named Buck, and he became real good friends with him, but then when the fight happened, Buck done climbed a tree and got himself into trouble. The poor boy, he died all ‘cause of a boy from one family and a girl from the other runnin’ off together to get married. It’s sad to see people dying for fool reasons like that, and I think Huck blamed himself. I told him that it wasn’t his fault, and I hugged him tight. Poor child felt way better after that, and I felt better too. We were back as a team again, and I’m not letting him go.

Entry 10

We met two strange fellas today. These two men was being chased by a mob, and we couldn’t help but feel done sorry for them, so we let them on. Pretty soon they was talking about where they come from, one saying he’s a duke, and the other saying he’s the long los’ heir to the French throne. They was all sad that their titles been taken away, so me and Huck got to bowing and callin’ them ‘Yo’ majesty’ and treating them with royal truck. Pretty soon though, I sees we couldn’t trust em’. They wanted to turn me in and get their reward, so to make us serve em’, we had to take ‘um down the river to wherever they wanted to go. Then they get this idea to put on some kind a’ grand show, and I was mighty suspicious.

Right away I knew, dese was no duke and king…
