Character Analysis: Running Off-Personal Narrative

“Huck, you need to work on your table manners young man. You hear me? This is a home not a playground. “ Mrs. Watson nagged and nagged, as if we had this conversation every day, which we did.

Jim seems to like attention and uses dishonesty to get the attention. He goes around telling others that he has encountered the devil and he has bin given

whatever he can to keep his word that “ he will not tell on Jim.”

From the very beginning, Miss Watson has proved to be an extremely devoted Christian. She believes in organized religion and does everything by the Bible. Miss Watson believes that she will go to Heaven because she follows all the strict rules of the Bible. However, some of her actions coincide with the morals of society, which oppose the morals of the Bible. Not only does she own a slave, she also “pecks on [Jim] all de time, en treats [Jim] pooty rough” (43). Miss Watson also shows religious hypocrisy when she claims moral superiority by saying that she “was going to live so as to go to the good place”, but that Tom would not go to the good place “by a considerable sight” (3). By boasting that she will go to Heaven, owning a slave, and treating him poorly, Miss Watson was able to portray the hypocrisy in religion. Religious people are supposed to be humble, treat others with respect, and be kind. Such a devoted Christian should know the difference between what is right and wrong. However, since society has accepted slavery, social morals now conflict with religious morals. Through Miss Watson, Twain was able to show the irony of Southern

“If I was as much of a wuss as you, Huck Finn, I wouldn’t be able to live with myself. Come on.” Tom said jokingly

Mike and his wife Barb were happy to see me again. When I pulled into their driveway they were waiting outside his shop. Mike and I had made arrangements for me to purchase another ATV from him. This time I arrived to look at a 1984 Honda ATC250ex that he had restored. Mike is a shade tree mechanic who repairs old vehicles and ATVs and then flips them for a small profit. Entering his shop presents one with at least a dozen quads and dirt bikes all in a different stage of restoration. The youngest model in restoration is at least 25 years old. While most of the ATVs were in non-running condition, they weren’t treated like discarded trash. Each of Mike’s ATVs was positioned with disassembled parts sorted nearby as if every project had its own

"Yes, my sweetheart," I had told it, " Tonight you shall kill that swine of a man, Mister Edward Hewitt of thirteen Lenbrooke Crescent. I'm afraid that he has been on my trail since the beginning, however, by the time the sun dawns on a new day, no-one will ever know of poor, unfortunate Mister Hewitt's suspicions, whether they be true or false."

Chapter 1-3 – (pg. 15-25) – This chapter tells who Huckleberry is and who the Miss Watson is. Miss Watson, the widow, tries to civilize Huckleberry, because she sees him

“So we're here Jim, looks like there is a lot to do,” said Ryan in a sarcastic tone.

In the clip, Theresa figures out that Jim's dad was away from their entire family when he passed away. Jim explains that their dad was very loyal and hard working. His family was very important to him.

“Please take it, and don’t say nothing- then I won’t have to tell no lies.” ‘Immediately, as my brain processed the words that Huck spoke, there was an oddly satisfying feeling. Huckleberry

Mrs. Watson said, “before I forget here is your uniform Huckleberry,” and she hand over my uniform.” “Now Huckleberry

Jim - I’ve never really had a role. The person who was supposed to create me needed another person in this family. But he forgot about me. Now I’m the one who sits at home, reading comic books, alone.

“Oh, I’m so sorry! I only had to make sure that we were alone, and even better, immobilized so you couldn’t escape while I told you this.” She almost had a mocking tone in her voice, “I currently hold the position as an FBI agent here in New York City and have been on assigned to watch you. Sorry about the leg.” She explained as she reached down and lifted his leg up so his other one was barely off the ground as she examined the injured spot intensely. She muttered under her breath a faint sentence that sounded to Martin to have some similarity to “The doctors at floor 19 ½ will be overjoyed to hear that you need some medical attention.”

 I was always kind of upset with Jim because he was one of those kids that had that
