After Huck had found out that Mrs. Sophia had ran away, everyone went off to search for her. The family thought that Mrs. Sophia ran off with Harney Shepherdson, he is part of the family that Buck's family is in a feud with. The family and Huck go in search of Mrs. Sophia and Harney everyone except for the women. When Huck went to go see what happened he had found Buck and his cousin, Joe being sneaky trying to find the other man. Huck had whispered to Buck to tell him he was there to help. Buck told Huck he's father and brother had died already Huck was surprised to hear that. Later they heard a noise and then a gunfire was shot. Huck saw some things he thought he would never and wishes he never saw.
Huck feels responsible for the death of those people. In a way he kind of is because he had gone to get the letter for Mrs. Sophia. That's too bad that that the family died, they were such a nice family. So many bad things seem to follow him no matter where he goes. I want to know what it is that he saw that made him have nightmares and see things he wishes he did not see. I hope Huck and Jim have a happy ending. :)

After Huck had given Mrs. Sophia her Testament, Jack had pulled him aside to show him a whole stack o' water moccasins. Huck had followed Jack outside, where he found Jim laying around a tree. Huck was so happy to see Jim and thought Jim would also be excited but he wasn't. Jim knew that Huck was alright and where he was staying at. Jim also knew that Huck had been looking for him. Jim told Huck how Jack had been helping him. Later, Huck had found out that Mrs. Sophia had ran away with her boyfriend.
Well, at least Huck and Jim are reunited again. :) Those two always seem to get lost and then always find each other. It was nice of Jack to bee given food to Jim and supplying him with whatever else he needed when Huck did not know where Jim was. That was one one good thing that had happened. The other thing, why do girls runaway with their boyfriends when their own family does not accept their relationship?

"George" had never hear of the word feud before, and so Buck had explained it to him. Feud meant that a man had a quarrel wit another man and kills him: then that man's family would get involved until their all dead. After that whole new lesson, Huck was tired and sleepy. Mrs. Sophia had asked him if he would go to church and get her her Testament that she had left. George had said yes, and went to go find it, but had felt suspicious of the situation. He ignored it anyways.
I did not know that feud had also meant what it had said in the book. I mean I knew it was like a fight between men, but not to the extent of killing each other. Another thing, who leaves their testament in a book in church? That's just weird! I wonder what Mrs. Sophia mus be up to?

Buck, the son of the family that lives there and is around the same age as Huck, had gave "George" a tour of the house. Huck felt like he actually had a home of his own. Buck had been talking about what the family would do on someones birthday. Emmeline Grangerford, not even fourteen yet, knows how to write poetry, really good poetry. Huck was impressed by that fact. He liked reading the girls poetry.
Its weird to think that people can actually feel like they belong, when they don't really know those people. I can relate to that. In the begging of the year I had meet new friends and started hanging out with them, and I didn't know if they were going to accept me or not, but felt comfortable being their.

Huck had come across a big old-fashioned double log house. In that house lived a nice family, they had invited George Jackson a.k.a Huck. When they first saw "George," the father, named Saul, had asked him if he had seen the shepsherdsons around. "George" had said that was the first time he has ever heard of that name. Huck though that family was a nice family and that it was really nice of them to let him stay there for as long as he wanted. Huck, I mean George had lied to the family telling them he had nowhere else to go.
That must be a really nice family, to just let a stranger in their house and let them live there for as long as they want. Its a nice thing that Huck has met some new people, but he should really stop lying to people who are willing to help him. But other then that I glad he has found a new friend. I wonder what could had happen to Jim?

Huck and Jim were looking for a town named Cairo. On their way to the next town, they saw some steam boats heading their way. Huck and Jim have had have some boats come closer to them, but never actually touch their raft. This time it was differently the steamboat was heading their way pretty fast. The boat had hit them, and Huck and Jim had jumped off on differently side. Huck could find Jim.
The just plain mean how some people would trick Huck and Jim by pretending to be so close their raft and about to hit them, but actually having time to move. This last boat that actually hit their raft was just plain rude! People enjoy making other people suffer in order to laugh.

Huck and Jim spend sometime talking about how Jim life is going to be like when he officially becomes a free man. Jim starts talking to Huck about how thanks to him, he is a free man. Huck felt for this because he knows its his fault why Jim ran away and how the police are looking for him. Huck didn't mean to put Jim at blame for his "death." Huck wanted to tell Jim he was sorry, but Jim was thanking Huck for being his one and only friend, and knowing he could trust Huck to be there to help him. After that Jim talked about the things he would do when officially became a free man.
I think that sweet of Jim to tell Huck how much their friendship means to him. You know that your friendship is strong when you can really trust that person to be their for you when your down or when you need someone to talk to. Friends are there to back you up and stand up for you. That's how strong Huck and Jim's friendship is.

This was Friday's reading. The whole thing about Huck not remembering about what had happened during the night was a trick to Jim. Jim had gotten mad of how Huck made him fee; he felt ashamed. Jim was all worried, worried enough that he did not care about what could had happen to himself. After Huck had seen Jim's reaction to the trick, Huck had felt terrible so he apologizes to Jim.

Huck had gotten scared because of the fog and the noise. After he had found a place to rest and passed out. Then he wakes up and doesn't remember where he is. He sees the river and something floating in the middle and starts to paddle towards it. He finally finds Jim, he is sleeping. Huck wakes Jim up and Jim starts to panic, he though Huck was dead. Jim explained to Huck what had happened during the night; the fog and them getting lost. Huck couldn't remember any of it and though Jim was drunk.
Maybe its a good thing that Huck can't seem to remember what had happen during the night. I would be scared about me being alone in dark, not only in the river but fog coming towards you and something from behind. I would probably would want to forget about that. Jim in the other hand, I feel sorry for because he had thought that Huck was dead and he was all worried, and again he thinks Huck's ghost is haunting him. Well at least they found each. :)

Jim and Huck were arguing about how a Frenchman should talk. Three days later came a fog that had scared and had gotten Huck sick. He was lost in the fog, not knowing were he was heading. Huck kept hearing a noise coming from behind and he started to panic. If I were to be in his situation, I to would be panicking. I can picture it now; Me sitting in the boat all of sudden I see this big fog coming my way and then I see nothing. I'm not sure which way I'm heading and then I start hearing a noise following from behind. Yeah, I would be panicking. SCARY!

Jim and Huck had manged to escape out of the boat. They were going to get Bill and Jake in as much trouble as Jim Turner. Huck started thinking about how he is going to become a murder in the future. Huck had sent the boat all the way to Walter Scott. Huckleberry went to go find the watchmen of the other boat he had found. Huck told the watchmen he's pap and mam were in a lot of trouble.
Huck has got to be lucky, for not getting caught. Jim I could understand more, he is afraid to get caught and to be killed in the process. So many things happen to this kid. It hard to tell sometimes, weather the events that happen to him are good or bad.

Huck and Jim found a boat. In the boat there was three men, one was tied up, one was holding a gun, and the other was talking about killing the men tied up. Jim Turner, Bill, and Jake Packard were their names. Huckleberry heard Bill and Jake wanting to kill Jim. Huck wanted the bad guys to get caught doing their plan.
Me being in that situation, I would probably be freaking out. I would be panicking, and would be afraid of getting caught. I would be like Jim telling Huck to leave.
