Essay --

Chapter 29: Harvey comes and talks about how his brother William broke his arm and how the baggage got lost in a town above here. The king is trying to take the blame off himself by saying what a coincidence it was that both of those things happened to him before he arrived here. A lot of people were on the side of the King instead of the real people. Some people were against the king in which includes the doctor of course and a lawyer named Levi Bell. The lawyer attempts to question him about himself and how he arrived to the town and all that stuff. The Doctor goes in his defense and says that if these two aren’t frauds, he the doctor himself is an idiot. They will bring the King and the Dauphin to the real couple and see what is going on. They go to a hotel with the new couple. The doctor accuses them of being frauds that have complices or assistants that they do not know about. He states that if there were complices, then the fakes would have gotten away with the bad of mo ney that Peter Wilks left. Now the king tells the story of how he had the money that the niece (Mary) gave to her to invest and hid it under the bed and follows what Huck tells him and says that the niggers stole and got away with it. One person questions Huck about the money and he tells exactly what he told the King that the niggers stole the money and he didn’t witness it happen or run away from the room. Now the lawyer is testing for handwriting and signatures to determine more evidence. After the two couples have written the two lines and signed it, the lawyer compared and the guilty victims were very obvious. Now the king is still defending himself saying it wasn’t a fair test and saying that the Duke is playing a joke about the handwriting. Now he gets... ...e run to freedom. The letter he writes it that Jim is down here two mile below Pikesville and Mr Phelps got him and will sell him for the reward. Huck then thinks about all the good times he had with Jim and how he was Jim’s only friend. Now Huck wants to get Jim out of slavery. Huck gathers a canoe and rides until he found a mill with the sigh â€Å"Phelps sawmill† Huck sinks the canoe to where can find it again. He then sees the duke holding up the bill for the Royal Noneuch-3 night performance- like that other time. Soon later Huck finds out that the raft is gone. His only property and Jim gets sold and the money is not split with the Duke. As long as Huck doesn’t blow, the Duke would tell him where to find Jim. And he was about to give him real information but he changes his mind and tells him to walk 40 miles in 3 days to a man named Abram Foster. Huck must go NOW.
