Then
Becky
reflected
a
moment
and
said:
“But
what
will
mamma
say?”
“How’ll
she
ever
know?”
The
girl
turned
the
idea
over
in
her
mind,
and
said
reluctantly:
“I
reckon
it’s
wrong—but—”
“But
shucks!
Your
mother
won’t
know,
and
so
what’s
the
harm?
All
she
wants
is
that
you’ll
be
safe;
and
I
bet
you
she’d
’a’
said
go
there
if
she’d
’a’
thought
of
it.
I
know
she
would!”
The
Widow
Douglas’
splendid
hospitality
was
a
tempting
bait.
It
and
Tom’s
persuasions
presently
carried
the
day.
So
it
was
decided
to
say
nothing
to
anybody
about
the
night’s
programme.
Presently
it
occurred
to
Tom
that
maybe
Huck
might
come
this
very
night
and
give
the
signal.
The
thought
took
a
deal
of
the
spirit
out
of
his
anticipations.
Still
he
could
not
bear
to
give
up
the
fun
at
Widow
Douglas’.
And
why
should
he
give
it
up,
he
reasoned—the
signal
did
not
come
the
night
before,
so
why
should
it
be
any
more
likely
to
come
tonight?
The
sure
fun
of
the
evening
outweighed
the
uncertain
treasure;
and,
boy-like,
he
determined
to
yield
to
the
stronger
inclination
and
not
allow
himself
to
think
of
the
box
of
money
another
time
that
day.
Three
miles
below
town
the
ferryboat
stopped
at
the
mouth
of
a
woody
hollow
and
tied
up.
The
crowd
swarmed
ashore
and
soon
the
forest
distances
and
craggy
heights
echoed
far
and
near
with
shoutings
and
laughter.
All
the
different
ways
of
getting
hot
and
tired
were
gone
through
with,
and
by-and-by
the
rovers
straggled
back
to
camp
fortified
with
responsible
appetites,
and
then
the
destruction
of
the
good
things
began.
After
the
feast
there
was
a
refreshing
season
of
rest
and
chat
in
the
shade
of
spreading
oaks.
By-and-by
somebody
shouted:
