Chapter 23: Well the only references to Maturation of huck in this chapter would be when he decides against telling jim that the two people they were hanging out with were fakes. I feel that he thought that it would just be better if he didnt know, why he thought that, i am at a loss. Also when he comes to terms with the fact that Jim loves his family as much as any average white man would.
Chapter 24: In this chapter we see that Huck has taken a stance on what is right and wrong in the world. When he sees the men he was traveling with pretend to be the relative of a dead man in a new town, he is disgusted by them, and ashamed that he is part of their company.
Chapter 25: Not much can be seen in the way of coming of age from this chapter, except that Huck really hates the Daulphin and the Duke guys.
Chapter 26: In this chapter huck is determined to give the money back that the Duke and his friend stole from the family. He realizes it is wrong and wanting to do the right thing, hides the money so he can later give it to the family
Chapter 27: Huck is interrupted and hides the money in a coffin. The coffin is buried and the money is buried with it. Huck is horrified when the Duke and his friend sell the slaves of the estate and separate the family. He abhors the idea, and is only able to stand it when he rationalizes that they will be reunited soon.
Chapter 28: Huck tells the truth to Mary Jane, whom was distraught over the separation of the slaves, which is something foreign to him. He isnt used to telling the truth, and actually does because he knows it is the right thing to do.
Chapter 29: Well in this chapter, the feces hit the rotating oscillator so to speak. I mean the real cousins appeared, attempted to defraud the fake ones, almost die and huck is almost strangled to death.
Chapter 30: boring chapter the Duke and the other guy make up after fighting
Chapter 31: In this chapter the Duke sold jim for $40. Huck is caught between a rock and a hard place because he wants to save jim, but doesnt want to go against what he believes. Ultimately he resolves to help Jim even if divine retribution would be the punishment. He has begun to realize that even though Jim is of African descent, he is a human, and because of that he feels he must help him.
Nice job.
