While reading these chapters the king and the duke go around scamming town out of there money and resources. I don't understand why Huck and Jim would want to stay with these scam artist? They are not good people and aren't like Huck and Jim. Also, why does isn't there any communications between each town/village? You would think that word would spread about the fakes. Additionally, Huck should count himself luck that the people that took Jim is non other than Tom Sawyer's aunt and uncle. I mean what are the odds?
It is important that the reader sees the change in Huck as the story is being told. At the beginning he doesn't think about how his actions may affect someone else, but when Jim is taken Huck immediately thinks about Jim, Tom, and Ms. Watson. He also bring in religion in a way when he decides to help Jim against everything else and says he is going to hell for the decision he makes.
These chapters as well as the ones before frustrates me that Huck and Jim stay with the scammers, the duke and the king. The don't benefit from their actions and have to cover for the two of them. On the other hand, I like how Twain makes the captures of Jim Tom Sawyer's relative. I hope that the two will get Jim out of there and back on the road to becoming a free man.
