But me and Jim was silent, so he broke off surprised, and says: "Looky here, Huck Finn, don't you see it YET?" I says: "Tom Sawyer, I want to ask you some questions."

The boy's protest, hoarse and inarticulate, stopped Steve, who dropped his bantering tone and turned serious. "Now looky here, Jason, yo' uncle Arch has tol' me about Gray and Mavis already up that in the mountains, an' I see what's comin' down here fer you. You an' Gray ought to have more sense gittin' into such trouble " "Trouble!" cried the boy. "Yes, I know," Steve answered.
"And if you're not lucky?" Harshaw demanded. "Why, o' course we might have trouble. Got to take our chances on that." "They might wipe the whole bunch of you out. No, sir. I need my men right here. This whole thing's comin' to a show-down right soon. Houck will have to wait." "I got to go back, Mr. Harshaw," Bob insisted. "I done promised him I would." "Looky here, boy.
