Huck and Jim’s perilous night journey and desperate search for safety on the Mississippi River Floating past the ferry, Huck spots Jackson’s Island—dark, wooded, and solid as an unlit steamboat—with its submerged bar signaling nature’s unpredictability. He endures an agonizing wait for Jim’s distant light; by their reunion, dawn nears. The pair hides their raft and skiff, then collapses into a deep sleep. This scene underscores their fragile freedom, unspoken trust, and Twain’s masterful use of vivid imagery to mirror their perilous fight for dignity.
