SUMMARY:
In the morning Uncle Sylas goes into town again but comes back soon looking disappointed at not having found Tom. At breakfast, Sylas remembers a letter that he was supposed to give Aunt Sally but before she could open it, she runs outside and joins a crowd that is carrying Tom, safely, and carrying Jim, bound, and tied. Tom is taken inside, and Huck goes to see that Jim is okay. The farmers want to hang Jim, but as he doesn’t belong to them, he can’t be. They however do tie him up even harder and say that his rations are to be reduced to only bread and water. The doctor comes in and changes their minds about torturing Jim. He says that Jim was the best nurse that he could have asked for while taking care of Jim. This gets the men to leave Jim alone, but they aren’t too happy about having a runaway slave in their midst.
Huck then goes inside to see Aunt Sally and Tom. He is sleeping, but Aunt Sally dotes on him like never before. After a while, Tom finally wakes up, and before Huck can tell him that everything went wrong, he starts asking if Jim got away safe, and starts telling Aunt Sally about how he and Huck helped him escape. Aunt Sally interjects though and tells Tom that Jim didn’t get free, and that he is back in chains. Tom leaps up and yells that Jim has in fact been free for 2 months, he was freed in the will of Mrs Watson. Just as he is going on about this, Aunt Polly, arrives out of the blue, and Huck jumps under the bed. She reprimands Tom and tells Sally that he and Huckleberry Finn and Tom have been pretending to be different Sawyer kids all this time.
