Though Huck prefers this to his life with the widow, he resents(怨恨) his father's drunken violence and his habit of keeping him locked inside the cabin.
During one of his father‘s absences Huck escapes, elaborately(精心地) fakes his own murder and sets off down the Mississippi River.
While living fortably in the wilderness along the Mississippi, Huck encounters Miss Watson's slave Jim on an island called Jackson's Island.
