Hi everyone! I have an important question. Why Huck and Jim choose to travel down the river - that is to the south. Normally a runaway slave would run to the north, isn't it? Thanks for your help!

Why Huck and Jim travel DOWN the river?
They plan to travel only to Cairo, then catch the Ohio River and head north. Unfortunately, they miss Cairo in the fog.
The Ohio is a much smaller river, probably easier to travel against the current than the Mighty Mississippi.
