After a little while the boat sinks and the boys head to Jackson's Island where they have the time of their lives, fishing camping and playing pirates. After a day or two the boys hear a big bang. They see the riverboat and a few men loading and firing a cannon to see if someone has drowned. The boys also see aunt Polly, constable Muller and Joe Harper's mother. The runaways become aware that they are the ones that are missing. Huck feels sad that nobody misses him, but Tom and Joe comfort him
