You don't know about me without you have read a book by
the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, but that ain't no
matter. That book was made by Mr. Mark Twain, and he told
the truth, mainly. There was things which he stretched, but
mainly he told the truth. That is nothing. I never seen anybody
but lied one time or another, without it was Aunt Polly, or the
widow, or maybe Mary. Aunt Polly--Tom's Aunt Polly, she is
and Mary, and the Widow Douglas is all told about in that book,
which is mostly a true book, with some stretchers, as I said
before.
Now the way that the book winds up is this: Tom and me
found the money that the robbers hid in the cave, and it made
us rich. We got six thousand dollars apiece--all gold. It was an
awful sight of money when it was piled up. Well, Judge
Thatcher he took it and put it out at interest, and it fetched us a
dollar a day apiece all the year round --
more than a body could
tell what to do with. The Widow Douglas she took me for her
son, and allowed she would sivilize me; but it was rough living
in the house all the time considering how dismal regular and
decent the widow was in all her ways, and so when I couldn't
stand it no longer I lit out. I got into my old rags and my sugar-
hogshead again, and was free and satisfied. But Tom Sawyer he
hunted me up and said he was going to start a band of robbers,
and I might join if I would go back to the widow and be
respectable. So I went back
