Chapter 35 Summary

  • Tom and Huck's big haul is the talk of the town, and soon everyone around is digging under trees and searching haunted houses for buried treasure.
  • Tom and Huck's money is put in the bank, so that each boy has an income of one dollar each weekday, and a quarter every other Sunday – enough to pretty much cover any and all expenses they might have.
  • Judge Thatcher is left with a high opinion of Tom.
  • Huck is miserable. He hates being kept clean by the Widow's servants.  He hates eating with a knife and fork, going to church and reading and talking "properly" and basically not getting to do anything thing that he wants to do.
  • After three weeks of suffering, Huck slips away. Three days later Tom finds him sleeping in a barrel, just like the old days.
  • Tom talks Huck into going back to the Widow Douglas's; when Huck protests and says that he doesn't like his new life, Tom tells him that "everybody does it that way."
  • Tom attempts to use reason to change Huck's mind.  He tells Huck, “You need to be respectable to be in Tom Sawyer's Gang.”
  • Huck goes back to the Widow Douglas's.
  • The boys decide that the initiation ceremony for Tom's gang will take place that night, at midnight, and include all the usual oaths and blood.
  • Huck can't wait to see what happens.
