When they were on the river, Huck did not know whether to follow his conscience and help Jim escape to the free states, or do what society has told him to do and turn him into authorities. He had been taught all his life that slaves were property and not people, but when he spent time with Jim on the river, he decided that society had been wrong and that Jim is a person not property. In the end, Huck decided to take sides with his conscience and help Jim on his way to freedom only to discover that he had been freed by Ms. Watson
