Huckleberry Finn is interviewed about his life in St. Petersburg. He explains that the other children like to play with him but many adults disapprove because he doesn't keep clean. When asked about witnessing Dr. Robinson's murder with Tom Sawyer, Huck says it was horrible and they ran away fast. His favorite game to play is Robin Hood because it involves stories the boys read. Huck also says he and Tom plan to be robbers now that they found treasure, but Tom's Aunt Polly and Widow Douglas keep the gold safe.

Q. Huck, a lot of adults in St. Petersburg dont like when the other children talk and play with you. Why do you think that is? A. Why, I dare say that those grown-ups dont know what theyre talking about. Just because I dont keep myself neat and tidy doesnt mean Im some kind of animal! Q. You and Tom Sawyer had the unfortunate experience of witnessing the murder of Dr. Robinson. How was that? A. Oh, just horrible! Me and Tom started out of there faster than the next beat of our hearts! Ive never been more frightened. Q. It seems that you and all your friends love to play games. Which game is your favorite to play? A. Well, I dont often remember the names of the games we play. A lot of them are about things that the other boys read about in literachur. But Robin Hood is fun. Q. What do you plan on doing in the future? Do you have any plans, now that you found wealth in Injun Joes treasure? A. Well, keep mum about it, but me and Tom Sawyer plan on going off and being robbers! Tom knows lots about them. Itll surely be great fun! Q. Once you and Tom found Injun Joes treasure, how did the town of St. Petersburg react? Was anyone envious of your riches? A. Oh, I imagine so. I know I would! But Widow Douglas and Toms Aunt Polly keep all the gold safe from us, so we arent often seen flaunting it.
