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.

4480CHAPTER XXXII
4481TUESDAY afternoon came, and waned to the twilight.
4482The village of St. Petersburg still mourned.
4483The lost children had not been found.
4484Public prayers had been offered up for them, and many and many a private prayer that had the petitioner's whole heart in it; but still no good news came from the cave.
4485The majority of the searchers had given up the quest and gone back to their daily avocations, saying that it was plain the children could never be found.
4486Mrs. Thatcher was very ill, and a great part of the time delirious.
4487People said it was heartbreaking to hear her call her child, and raise her head and listen a whole minute at a time, then lay it wearily down again with a moan.
4488Aunt Polly had drooped into a settled melancholy, and her gray hair had grown almost white.
4489The village went to its rest on Tuesday night, sad and forlorn.
4490Away in the middle of the night a wild peal burst from the village bells, and in a moment the streets were swarming with frantic half-clad people, who shouted,
4491"Turn out! turn out! they're found! they're found!"
4492Tin pans and horns were added to the din, the population massed itself and moved toward the river, met the children coming in an open carriage drawn by shouting citizens, thronged around it, joined its homeward march, and swept magnificently up the main street roaring huzzah after huzzah!
4493The village was illuminated; nobody went to bed again; it was the greatest night the little town had ever seen.
4494During the first half-hour a procession of villagers filed through Judge Thatcher's house, seized the saved ones and kissed them, squeezed Mrs. Thatcher's hand, tried to speak but couldn't--and drifted out raining tears all over the place.
4495Aunt Polly's happiness was complete, and Mrs. Thatcher's nearly so.
4496It would be complete, however, as soon as the messenger dispatched with the great news to the cave should get the word to her husband.
4497Tom lay upon a sofa with an eager auditory about him and told the history of the wonderful adventure, putting in many striking additions to adorn it withal; and closed with a description of how he left Becky and went on an exploring expedition; how he followed two avenues as far as his kite-line would reach; how he followed a third to the fullest stretch of the kite-line, and was about to turn back when he glimpsed a far-off speck that looked like daylight; dropped the line and groped toward it, pushed his head and shoulders through a small hole, and saw the broad Mississippi rolling by!
4498And if it had only happened to be night he would not have seen that speck of daylight and would not have explored that passage any more!
4499He told how he went back for Becky and broke the good news and she told him not to fret her with such stuff, for she was tired, and knew she was going to die, and wanted to.
4500He described how he labored with her and convinced her; and how she almost died for joy when she had groped to where she actually saw the blue speck of daylight; how he pushed his way out at the hole and then helped her out; how they sat there and cried for gladness; how some men came along in a skiff and Tom hailed them and told them their situation and their famished condition; how the men didn't believe the wild tale at first, "because," said they, "you are five miles down the river below the valley the cave is in" --then took them aboard, rowed to a house, gave them supper, made them rest till two or three hours after dark and then brought them home.
4501Before day-dawn, Judge Thatcher and the handful of searchers with him were tracked out, in the cave, by the twine clews they had strung behind them, and informed of the great news.
4502Three days and nights of toil and hunger in the cave were not to be shaken off at once, as Tom and Becky soon discovered.
4503They were bedridden all of Wednesday and Thursday, and seemed to grow more and more tired and worn, all the time.
4504Tom got about, a little, on Thursday, was down-town Friday, and nearly as whole as ever Saturday; but Becky did not leave her room until Sunday, and then she looked as if she had passed through a wasting illness.
