1"Well, what of it? They'll all lie. Leastways all but the nigger. I don't know him. But I never see a nigger that
2wouldn't lie. Shucks! Now you tell me how Bob Tanner done it, Huck." "Why, he took and dipped his hand in a rotten stump
3where the rain-water was." "In the daytime?" "Certainly." "With his face to the stump?" "Yes. Least I reckon so." "Did
4he say anything?" "I don't reckon he did. I don't know." "Aha! Talk about trying to cure warts with spunk-water such a
5blame fool way as that! Why, that ain't a-going to do any good. You got to go all by yourself, to the middle of the
6woods, where you know there's a spunk-water stump, and just as it's midnight you back up against the stump and jam your
7hand in and say: 'Barley-corn, barley-corn, injun-meal shorts, Spunk-water, spunk-water, swaller these warts,' and then
8walk away quick, eleven steps, with your eyes shut, and then turn around three times and walk home without speaking to
9anybody. Because if you speak the charm's busted." "Well, that sounds like a good way; but that ain't the way Bob Tanner
10done." "No, sir, you can bet he didn't, becuz he's the wartiest boy in this town; and he wouldn't have a wart on him if
11he'd knowed how to work spunk-water. I've took off thousands of warts off of my hands that way, Huck. I play with frogs
12so much that I've always got considerable many warts. Sometimes I take 'em off with a bean." "Yes, bean's good. I've
13done that." "Have you? What's your way?" "You take and split the bean, and cut the wart so as to get some blood, and
14then you put the blood on one piece of the bean and take and dig a hole and bury it 'bout midnight at the crossroads in
15the dark of the moon, and then you burn up the rest of the bean. You see that piece that's got the blood on it will keep
16drawing and drawing, trying to fetch the other piece to it, and so that helps the blood to draw the wart, and pretty
17soon off she comes." "Yes, that's it, Huck--that's it; though when you're burying it if you say 'Down bean; off wart;
18come no more to bother me!' it's better. That's the way Joe Harper does, and he's been nearly to Coonville and most
19everywheres. But say--how do you cure 'em with dead cats?" "Why, you take your cat and go and get in the grave-yard
20'long about midnight when somebody that was wicked has been buried; and when it's midnight a devil will come, or maybe
21two or three, but you can't see 'em, you can only hear something like the wind, or maybe hear 'em talk; and when they're
22taking that feller away, you heave your cat after 'em and say, 'Devil follow corpse, cat follow devil, warts follow cat,
23I'm done with ye!' That'll fetch any wart." "Sounds right. D'you ever try it, Huck?" "No, but old Mother Hopkins told
24me." "Well, I reckon it's so, then. Becuz they say she's a witch." "Say! Why, Tom, I know she is. She witched pap. Pap
25says so his own self. He come along one day, and he see she was a-witching him, so he took up a rock, and if she hadn't
26dodged, he'd a got her. Well, that very night he rolled off'n a shed wher' he was a layin drunk, and broke his arm."
27"Why, that's awful. How did he know she was a-witching him?" "Lord, pap can tell, easy. Pap says when they keep looking
28at you right stiddy, they're a-witching you. Specially if they mumble. Becuz when they mumble they're saying the Lord's
29Prayer backards." "Say, Hucky, when you going to try the cat?" "To-night. I reckon they'll come after old Hoss Williams
30to-night." "But they buried him Saturday. Didn't they get him Saturday night?" "Why, how you talk! How could their
31charms work till midnight?--and then it's Sunday. Devils don't slosh around much of a Sunday, I don't reckon." "I never
32thought of that. That's so. Lemme go with you?" "Of course--if you ain't afeard." "Afeard! 'Tain't likely. Will you
33meow?" "Yes--and you meow back, if you get a chance. Last time, you kep' me a-meowing around till old Hays went to
34throwing rocks at me and says 'Dern that cat!' and so I hove a brick through his window--but don't you tell." "I won't.
35I couldn't meow that night, becuz auntie was watching me, but I'll meow this time. Say--what's that?" "Nothing but a
36tick." "Where'd you get him?" "Out in the woods." "What'll you take for him?" "I don't know. I don't want to sell him."
37"All right. It's a mighty small tick, anyway." "Oh, anybody can run a tick down that don't belong to them. I'm satisfied
38with it. It's a good enough tick for me." "Sho, there's ticks a plenty. I could have a thousand of 'em if I wanted to."
39"Well, why don't you? Becuz you know mighty well you can't. This is a pretty early tick, I reckon. It's the first one
40I've seen this year." "Say, Huck--I'll give you my tooth for him." "Less see it." Tom got out a bit of paper and
41carefully unrolled it. Huckleberry viewed it wistfully. The temptation was very strong. At last he said: "Is it
42genuwyne?" Tom lifted his lip and showed the vacancy. "Well, all right," said Huckleberry, "it's a trade." Tom enclosed
43the tick in the percussion-cap box that had lately been the pinchbug's prison, and the boys separated, each feeling
44wealthier than before. When Tom reached the little isolated frame school-house, he strode in briskly, with the manner of
45one who had come with all honest speed. He hung his hat on a peg and flung himself into his seat with business-like
46alacrity. The master, throned on high in his great splint-bottom arm-chair, was dozing, lulled by the drowsy hum of
47study. The interruption roused him. "Thomas Sawyer!" Tom knew that when his name was pronounced in full, it meant
48trouble. "Sir!" "Come up here. Now, sir, why are you late again, as usual?" Tom was about to take refuge in a lie, when
49he saw two long tails of yellow hair hanging down a back that he recognized by the electric sympathy of love; and by
50that form was the only vacant place on the girls' side of the school-house. He instantly said: "I stopped to talk with
51Huckleberry Finn!" The master's pulse stood still, and he stared helplessly. The buzz of study ceased. The pupils
52wondered if this foolhardy boy had lost his mind. The master said: "You--you did what?" "Stopped to talk with
53Huckleberry Finn." There was no mistaking the words. "Thomas Sawyer, this is the most astounding confession I have ever
54listened to. No mere ferule will answer for this offence. Take off your jacket." The master's arm performed until it was
55tired and the stock of switches notably diminished. Then the order followed: "Now, sir, go and sit with the girls! And
56let this be a warning to you." The titter that rippled around the room appeared to abash the boy, but in reality that
57result was caused rather more by his worshipful awe of his unknown idol and the dread pleasure that lay in his high good
58fortune. He sat down upon the end of the pine bench and the girl hitched herself away from him with a toss of her head.
59Nudges and winks and whispers traversed the room, but Tom sat still, with his arms upon the long, low desk before him,
60and seemed to study his book. By and by attention ceased from him, and the accustomed school murmur rose upon the dull
61air once more. Presently the boy began to steal furtive glances at the girl. She observed it, "made a mouth" at him and
62gave him the back of her head for the space of a minute. When she cautiously faced around again, a peach lay before her.
63She thrust it away. Tom gently put it back. She thrust it away again, but with less animosity. Tom patiently returned it
64to its place. Then she let it remain. Tom scrawled on his slate, "Please take it--I got more." The girl glanced at the
65words, but made no sign. Now the boy began to draw something on the slate, hiding his work with his left hand. For a
66time the girl refused to notice; but her human curiosity presently began to manifest itself by hardly perceptible signs.
67The boy worked on, apparently unconscious. The girl made a sort of non-committal attempt to see, but the boy did not
68betray that he was aware of it. At last she gave in and hesitatingly whispered: "Let me see it."
