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.

3465We'll tackle the ha'nted house if you say so--but I reckon it's taking chances."
3466They had started down the hill by this time.
3467There in the middle of the moonlit valley below them stood the "ha'nted" house, utterly isolated, its fences gone long ago, rank weeds smothering the very doorsteps, the chimney crumbled to ruin, the window-sashes vacant, a corner of the roof caved in.
3468The boys gazed awhile, half expecting to see a blue light flit past a window; then talking in a low tone, as befitted the time and the circumstances, they struck far off to the right, to give the haunted house a wide berth, and took their way homeward through the woods that adorned the rearward side of Cardiff Hill.
3469CHAPTER XXVI
3470ABOUT noon the next day the boys arrived at the dead tree; they had come for their tools.
3471Tom was impatient to go to the haunted house; Huck was measurably so, also--but suddenly said:
3472"Lookyhere, Tom, do you know what day it is?"
3473Tom mentally ran over the days of the week, and then quickly lifted his eyes with a startled look in them--
3474"My!
3475I never once thought of it, Huck!"
3476"Well, I didn't neither, but all at once it popped onto me that it was Friday."
3477"Blame it, a body can't be too careful, Huck.
3478We might 'a' got into an awful scrape, tackling such a thing on a Friday."
3479"MIGHT!
3480Better say we WOULD!
3481There's some lucky days, maybe, but Friday ain't."
3482"Any fool knows that.
3483I don't reckon YOU was the first that found it out, Huck."
3484"Well, I never said I was, did I?
3485And Friday ain't all, neither. I had a rotten bad dream last night--dreampt about rats."
3486"No!
3487Sure sign of trouble.
3488Did they fight?"
3489"No."
3490"Well, that's good, Huck.
3491When they don't fight it's only a sign that there's trouble around, you know.
3492All we got to do is to look mighty sharp and keep out of it.
3493We'll drop this thing for to-day, and play.
3494Do you know Robin Hood, Huck?"
3495"No.
3496Who's Robin Hood?"
3497"Why, he was one of the greatest men that was ever in England--and the best.
3498He was a robber."
3499"Cracky, I wisht I was.
3500Who did he rob?"
3501"Only sheriffs and bishops and rich people and kings, and such like.
3502But he never bothered the poor.
3503He loved 'em.
3504He always divided up with 'em perfectly square."
3505"Well, he must 'a' been a brick."
3506"I bet you he was, Huck.
3507Oh, he was the noblest man that ever was.
3508They ain't any such men now, I can tell you.
3509He could lick any man in England, with one hand tied behind him; and he could take his yew bow and plug a ten-cent piece every time, a mile and a half."
3510"What's a YEW bow?"
3511"I don't know.
3512It's some kind of a bow, of course.
3513And if he hit that dime only on the edge he would set down and cry--and curse.
3514But we'll play Robin Hood--it's nobby fun.
3515I'll learn you."
3516"I'm agreed."
3517So they played Robin Hood all the afternoon, now and then casting a yearning eye down upon the haunted house and passing a remark about the morrow's prospects and possibilities there.
3518As the sun began to sink into the west they took their way homeward athwart the long shadows of the trees and soon were buried from sight in the forests of Cardiff Hill.
3519On Saturday, shortly after noon, the boys were at the dead tree again.
3520They had a smoke and a chat in the shade, and then dug a little in their last hole, not with great hope, but merely because Tom said there were so many cases where people had given up a treasure after getting down within six inches of it, and then somebody else had come along and turned it up with a single thrust of a shovel.
3521The thing failed this time, however, so the boys shouldered their tools and went away feeling that they had not trifled with fortune, but had fulfilled all the requirements that belong to the business of treasure-hunting.
3522When they reached the haunted house there was something so weird and grisly about the dead silence that reigned there under the baking sun, and something so depressing about the loneliness and desolation of the place, that they were afraid, for a moment, to venture in.
