The theme of:
some thought it would be good to kill the families of boys that told the secrets. tom said it was a good idea, so he took a pencil and wrote it in. then ben rogers says:

"here's huck finn, he hain't got no family; what you going to do 'bout him? "

"well, hain't he got a father? " says tom sawyer.

"yes, he's got a father, but you can't never find him these days. he used to lay drunk with the hogs in the tanyard, but he hain't been seen in these parts for a year or more."

they talked it over, and they was going to rule me out, because they said every boy must have a family or somebody to kill, or else it wouldn't be fair and square for the others. well, nobody could think of anything to do—everybody was stumped, and set still.
(mark twain, huckleberry finn)
