Chapters 28-31

What does Huck decide to do about Jim? Why does he decide to do it?

We see huck struggling with himself over weather or not he should turn Jim in or protect him. He origianly decided that he would only ever do what was the easiest. However he got to thinking about Jim as a friend and he vowed that even if it means going to hell he'll save Jim.
Huck actually at one point left Jim on the raft so that he could go out and turn him in but when the oppurtunity came he lied to protect Jim. He wasn't sure weather this was the right thing to do or not and he was sure Tom sawyer would never 'sink to such a level'. this is also odd for huck because tom is his model but in the end he chooses his friendship with jim even if its the harder decission
