Tom Sawyer Abroad (Annotated)

Do you think Tom Sawyer was content after all of his adventures? I'm referring to our river exploits, as well as the time we released Jim free and Tom was wounded in the leg. He wasn't, no. He was only p'isoned for more. That was the only impact it had. When we three returned up the river in glory, as you might say, from our long journey, and the hamlet greeted us with a torchlight parade and speeches, and everyone hurrahed and shouted, it made us heroes, and Tom Sawyer had always wanted to be one.
