When they come back to the pontoon, Huck and Jim find that the duke has printed a handbill that depicts Jim as a runaway slave from New Orleans. The handbill, the duke contends, will permit them to run the pontoon amid the day without interruption. The following morning, Jim says he can withstand maybe a couple rulers yet close to that. Chapter twenty one-twenty three: Planning for their next trick, the duke and ruler hone the gallery scene from Romeo and Juliet and the sword battle from Richard
