[00:00.58]Chapter 3 Huck and Jim travel south
[00:06.08]For some days everything went along quietly,but we were getting bored.
[00:15.54]We wanted to know what was happening in town and so I decided to go and find out.
[00:22.90]Jim said,'Why don't you wear the old dress and the hat that we found in the house?
[00:31.46]People won't know you, then. They'll think you're a girl.' And so I did.
[00:39.64]Just after it was dark,I got into the canoe
[00:45.62]And went up the river to the bottom of the town.
[00:49.41]There,I left the canoe and went on foot.
[00:55.52]Before long, I came to a little house which was always empty.
[01:00.92]Now there was a light on,and when I looked through the window,
[01:07.69]I saw a woman of about forty.
[01:11.17]She was a stranger and that was good because she didn't know me.
[01:17.76]So I knocked on the door.'I must remember that I'm a girl'I said to myself.
[01:26.73]The woman opened the door.'Come in,' she said.
[01:34.03]She looked at me with her little bright eyes.'What's your name?'she asked.
[01:42.15]'Sarah Williams,'I replied.'I'm going to see my uncle,on the other side of town.
[01:51.81]My mother's ill, you see,and she needs help.'
[01:57.15]'Well, you can't go there by yourself now.It's too dark.
[02:05.18]My husband will be home in about an hour. Wait for him and he'll walk with you.'
[02:13.67]And then she began to tell me about all her troubles.
[02:20.46]I was getting bored with all this until she said something about Pop and my murder.
[02:28.97]'Who did it?'I asked.
[02:32.90]'Well,'she replied,'some people say old Finn did it himself;
[02:40.31]Other people think it was a slave who ran away that night.
[02:45.70]His name was Jim.
[02:48.85]They'll give three hundred dollars to anybody who finds him——
[02:54.29]And they'll give two hundred dollars for old Finn.
[02:59.39]He got drunk and left town with two strangers.
[03:03.80]A lot of people think he killed his boy and he's going to come back one day,
[03:10.93]And get all Huck Finn's money.'
[03:15.40]'And what about the slave?'I asked.
[03:21.06]'Oh,they'll soon catch him. People want the three hundred dollars.
[03:27.98]I think he's on Jackson's Island, you know.I've seen smoke there.
[03:35.29]My husband's gone to get two of his friends
[03:38.80]And they're going over there with a gun later tonight.'
[03:44.34]When I heard this, my hands began to shake.
[03:48.92]The woman looked at me strangely,but then she smiled and said kindly,
[03:56.36]'What did you say your name was?'
[04:00.22]'M-Mary Williams.'
[04:04.96]'Oh,' she said,'I thought it was Sarah.'
[04:09.29]'Er… well, yes, it is. Sarah Mary Williams.
[04:16.64]Some people call me Sarah and some people call me Mary, you see.'
[04:23.11]'Oh,do they?'She smiled again.'Come on,now—what's your real name?
[04:35.42]Bill? Bob? I know you're not really a girl.'
[04:41.64]So then I had to tell her another story, with a different name,
[04:49.68]And I said I was running away. She said she wouldn't tell anybody,
[04:55.69]And gave me some food before I left.I hurried back to the island and Jim.
[05:02.96]'Quick,Jim!'I cried,waking him up.'They're coming to get us!'
[05:12.17]We got out the raft as fast as we could,put all our things on it,
[05:20.41]Tied the canoe on behind, and moved off down the river.
[05:26.38]When it began to get light,we hid. When it was dark again,we travelled on.
[05:35.26]On the fifth night we passed St Louis,
[05:40.04]And we decided to go on down to Cairo in Illinois,sell the raft there
[05:47.20]And get a boat to Ohio.There are no slaves in Ohio.
[05:53.06]We slept for most of that day and we began our journey again when it was dark.
[06:01.30]After some time,we saw lights on the Illinois side of the river
[06:07.88]And Jim got very excited.He thought it was Cairo.
[06:13.90]Jim got the canoe ready and I went off in it to take a look at those lights.
[06:20.74]But it wasn't Cairo.
[06:24.00]After that, we went on down the river.
[06:29.37]It was very dark that night and it wasn't easy to see where we were going.
[06:35.77]Suddenly,a big steamboat came at us very fast,and the next minute it was right over us.
[06:47.49]Jim and I jumped off the raft into the water.
[06:52.28]The boat hit the raft and went on up the river.
[06:57.72]When I came up out of the water, I couldn't see Jim anywhere.
[07:04.78]I called out his name again and again,but there was no answer.
[07:13.24]'He's dead!' I thought.Slowly, I swam to the side of the river and got out.
[07:25.31]I saw that I was near a big old wooden house.
[07:32.01]Suddenly a lot of very angry dogs jumped out at me.
[07:36.69]They made a terrible noise and someone called from the house,'Who's there?'
[07:44.74]'George Jackson,'I answered quickly.'I've fallen off a river boat.'
[07:52.70]Well, the people who lived in that house were very kind,
[07:59.44]And they took me in and gave me some new clothes and a good meal.
[08:05.08]I told them that my family were all dead,
[08:08.88]So they said I could stay with them as long as I wanted.
[08:13.37]It was a beautiful house and the food was good there, so I stayed.
[08:20.91]A few days later one of the slaves in the house came to me and said,
[08:29.10]'Come with me!'Together,we went down to some trees by the river.
[08:36.83]'In there!'he said and went away.
[08:42.17]On the ground, I found a man, asleep. It was Jim! I was really pleased to see him.
[08:55.90]When the steamboat hit the raft,Jim told me, the raft didn't break up.
[09:01.58]Jim swam after it and caught it. Then he began to look for me.
[09:08.37]We decided to leave at once. It's all right living in a house for a little while,
[09:18.09]But you feel more free and easy and comfortable on a raft.
