20) A ferryboat filled with Huck's friends comes down the river firing a cannon in hopes of bringing his dead body to the surface.

21) He finds Jim, who then relates that he overhead Miss Watson telling the widow that she was going to sell him down the river for a good sum of money. To avoid being sold, Jim ran away, and has been hiding out on Jackson's Island.
