Mark Twain - The Adventures Of Huckleberry Finn COMPLETE NOVEL

[DaddyBadger]

So the sleep didn't do me no good.

 

[SilverSurfer]

By and by I says to myself, I can't live this way; I'm a-going to find out who it is that's here on the island with me; I'll find it out or bust.

 

[Kulindahr]

So I took my paddle and slid out from shore just a step or two, and then let the canoe drop along down amongst the shadows.

 

[DaddyBadger]

The moon was shining, and outside of the shadows it made it most as light as day.

[Kulindahr]

I poked along well on to an hour, everything still as rocks and sound asleep.

 

[DaddyBadger]

A little ripply, cool breeze begun to blow, and that was as good as saying the night was about done.

 

[DaddyBadger]

I see the moon go off watch, and the darkness begin to blanket the river.

[SilverSurfer]

So I took my gun and slipped off towards where I had run across that camp fire, stopping every minute or two to listen.

 

[SilverSurfer]

By and by I was close enough to have a look, and there laid a man on the ground.

 

[SilverSurfer]

He had a blanket around his head, and his head was nearly in the fire.

 

[SilverSurfer]

It was getting gray daylight now.

 

[SilverSurfer]

I bet I was glad to see him.

 

[SilverSurfer]

He bounced up and stared at me wild.

 

[SilverSurfer]

I warn't lonesome now.

 

[SilverSurfer]

"What's de use er makin' up de camp fire to cook strawbries en sich truck? But you got a gun, hain't you? Den we kin git sumfn better den strawbries."

 

[SilverSurfer]

"I couldn' git nuffn else," he says.

 

[SilverSurfer]

"I come heah de night arter you's killed."

 

[DaddyBadger]

"What, all that time?"

 

[DaddyBadger]

"And ain't you had nothing but that kind of rubbage to eat?"

 

[DaddyBadger]

"Well, you must be most starved, ain't you?"
