The protagonist, Huck Finn, begins to feel uneasy about his and the slave Jim’s traveling companions. Huck catches on to the drunken ways of "The Duke" and "The King" (titles these con men have given themselves), and decides to come up with a plan to escape with him. When he discovers that the King has deceptively "sold" Jim for $40, Huck decides on his next move. This begins one of the most dramatic turning points in the novel. In a personal, introspective monologue, Huck weighs the advantages and disadvantages to turning in Jim as a runaway slave. His decision poses a moral dilemma: something inside him suggests slavery is wrong, but at the same time, society’s teaching tell him he must follow the law and turn in a runaway slave. As you read this chapter, focus on his monologue and identify and analyze six quotes total. In the first column, identify three passages that suggest a pro to turning in Jim. In the second column, explain how this exemplifies this pro, or benefit, to turning him in. In the third column, identify three passages that suggest a con to turning in Jim.

A passage from Huck’s monologue that suggests a con to turning Jim in Explain how this exemplifies a con/negative to turning in Jim?
