Том Сойер - обыкновенный американский мальчишка, увлекающийся и, по мнению взрослых, непослушный, неугомонный выдумщик, но и верный друг. Герой Марка Твена подкупает находчивостью и простодушием, предприимчивостью и любопытством. Приключения Тома помогают увидеть врожденную доброту мальчика, неподдельную жажду свободы и справедливости.

3047Tom went about, hoping against hope for the sight of one blessed sinful face, but disappointment crossed him everywhere.
3048He found Joe Harper studying a Testament, and turned sadly away from the depressing spectacle.
3049He sought Ben Rogers, and found him visiting the poor with a basket of tracts.
3050He hunted up Jim Hollis, who called his attention to the precious blessing of his late measles as a warning.
3051Every boy he encountered added another ton to his depression; and when, in desperation, he flew for refuge at last to the bosom of Huckleberry Finn and was received with a Scriptural quotation, his heart broke and he crept home and to bed realizing that he alone of all the town was lost, forever and forever.
3052And that night there came on a terrific storm, with driving rain, awful claps of thunder and blinding sheets of lightning.
3053He covered his head with the bedclothes and waited in a horror of suspense for his doom; for he had not the shadow of a doubt that all this hubbub was about him.
3054He believed he had taxed the forbearance of the powers above to the extremity of endurance and that this was the result.
3055It might have seemed to him a waste of pomp and ammunition to kill a bug with a battery of artillery, but there seemed nothing incongruous about the getting up such an expensive thunderstorm as this to knock the turf from under an insect like himself.
3056By and by the tempest spent itself and died without accomplishing its object.
3057The boy's first impulse was to be grateful, and reform.
3058His second was to wait--for there might not be any more storms.
3059The next day the doctors were back; Tom had relapsed.
3060The three weeks he spent on his back this time seemed an entire age.
3061When he got abroad at last he was hardly grateful that he had been spared, remembering how lonely was his estate, how companionless and forlorn he was.
3062He drifted listlessly down the street and found Jim Hollis acting as judge in a juvenile court that was trying a cat for murder, in the presence of her victim, a bird.
3063He found Joe Harper and Huck Finn up an alley eating a stolen melon.
3064Poor lads! they--like Tom--had suffered a relapse.
3065CHAPTER XXIII
3066AT last the sleepy atmosphere was stirred--and vigorously: the murder trial came on in the court.
3067It became the absorbing topic of village talk immediately.
3068Tom could not get away from it.
3069Every reference to the murder sent a shudder to his heart, for his troubled conscience and fears almost persuaded him that these remarks were put forth in his hearing as "feelers"; he did not see how he could be suspected of knowing anything about the murder, but still he could not be comfortable in the midst of this gossip.
3070It kept him in a cold shiver all the time.
3071He took Huck to a lonely place to have a talk with him.
3072It would be some relief to unseal his tongue for a little while; to divide his burden of distress with another sufferer.
3073Moreover, he wanted to assure himself that Huck had remained discreet.
3074"Huck, have you ever told anybody about--that?"
3075"'Bout what?"
3076"You know what."
3077"Oh--'course I haven't."
3078"Never a word?"
3079"Never a solitary word, so help me.
3080What makes you ask?"
3081"Well, I was afeard."
3082"Why, Tom Sawyer, we wouldn't be alive two days if that got found out. YOU know that."
3083Tom felt more comfortable.
3084After a pause:
3085"Huck, they couldn't anybody get you to tell, could they?"
3086"Get me to tell?
3087Why, if I wanted that half-breed devil to drownd me they could get me to tell.
3088They ain't no different way."
3089"Well, that's all right, then.
3090I reckon we're safe as long as we keep mum.
3091But let's swear again, anyway.
3092It's more surer."
3093"I'm agreed."
3094So they swore again with dread solemnities.
