It was a chilly brisk afternoon with Huck as I had been drunk most of last night and I didn’t feel right this morning. I told Huck to head to the river to get some fish to bring to town to sell and bring in some extra cash for us to spend. “Don’t stand there palavering all day but out with you and see if there's a fish on the lines for breakfast”(Chapter 6 Pap’s Downfall Page 37) Huck had told me the day before he weren’t rich but I shot back him at him soon after. “I hain’t heard nothing about you bein rich.
