The boys went out about an hour before breakfast so that they could have some
light but not too much.
tom and huck gather …, which makes a soft glow when it is in
fox-fire; dark places
tom complain’s that it’s too …, stating that they would have to invent all of the
easy; difficulties
tom states that they have to find something to make a
saw out of
they need a saw to cut the leg off jim’s bed so that they could
get the chain loose
huck doesn’t understand why they need to cut the leg off when tom said that they could lift up the bedstead and
slip the chain off.
tom is really just taking the whole thing as a
fun adventure and wants to make it difficult
tom wants to follow the books and saw the bed leg and put
dirt and grease around the sawed place
whey they would need to slip off the chain, they would part the bed leg and
slip off the chain
tom wants a moat and huck doesn’t know why since they are going to
sneak jim out from under the cabin
then tom decides that they don’t have enough necessity to saw
Jim’s actual leg off
tom also wants to make Jim a
rope ladder
Tom’s reasoning for the rope ladder is because all of “them” have
rope ladders
Tom says that Jim can hide the rope ladder in his bed as clue for after they’re
gone
huck then says that they would get in trouble with Sally if they ripped their sheets ot make the
ladder
huck says that they can make a … but Tom
hickory bark ladder; disagrees
huck relents and says tha tthey should borrow a sheet off of the clothesline and tom says to
borrow a shirt as well
tom says that they can give jim the shirt for him to keep a
journal on
Huck mentions that jim can’t
write
huck asks what they’ll make Jim the ink out of and Tom says that Jim can
use his blood
tom says that jim can write messages on the bottom of a tin plate to let the world know where he’s
held
they hear the breakfast horn and head back to the
house
huck gets the sheet and shirt from the
clothes line and puts them in a ack
