In the beginning of the story of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, one of the first things that the author, Mark Twain, addresses is Huck and his friend, Tom Sawyer, finding money hidden by robbers.

decide to leave a name off of this list. This name is Tom Brady. While it is certainly reasonable to question his spot in history because of this controversy, what is undeniable is Brady’s remarkable skills at the quarterback position. To many these skills would include arm strength, accuracy, and athleticism. However, as a lifelong Patriots fan, I can confidently say The Comeback Kid’s abilities span far beyond these simple measurables. Tom Brady is a legendary NFL quarterback…

After only a day together, Jim has gained enough trust in Huck to tell him his secret and felt enough affection for him to attempt to protect his young friend. His willingness to assert himself to Huck is another sign of his level of comfort around the boy, doubtless garnered through his previous acquaintance with him.
