In Chapter Three?

Huck feels guilty because he dirtied his clothing, and Miss Watson admonishes him. This is the first time he feels guilt for something he has done..... for letting Miss Watson down.

WELL, I got a good going-over in the morning from old Miss Watson on account of my clothes; but the widow she didn't scold, but only cleaned off the grease and clay, and looked so sorry that I thought I would behave awhile if I could.
