Document Summary
Huck and tom tiptoe through the widow"s garden. Huck trips on a root as he passes by the kitchen, and jim, one of miss watson"s slaves, hears him from inside. Tom and huck crouch down and try to stay still, but huck is struck by a series of uncontrollable itches, as often happens when he is in a situation. Where it won"t do for you to scratch. jim says aloud that he will stay put until he discovers the source of the sound, but after several minutes, he falls asleep. Tom wants to tie jim up, but the more practical huck objects, so tom settles for simply playing a trick by putting jim"s hat on a tree branch over. Tom also takes candles from the kitchen, despite huck"s objections that they will risk getting caught. Huck tells us that afterward, jim tells everyone that some witches flew him around and put the hat atop his head.
