Throughout chapters fourteen through sixteen, the boy's face many obstacles. Jim and Huck find a number of valuables among the robbers’ bounty from the Walter Scott. As they wait for nightfall in the woods, Huck reads books from the wreck, and the two discuss what Huck calls their “adventures.” Jim expresses his dislike of these "adventures", as they are often very dangerous. Huck tells Jim stories of kings, first reading from books and then adding some of his own, made-up stories. Jim refuses to believe that the French do not speak English and Huck tries to argue but gives up in defeat.  Huck and Jim finally reach the Ohio River. On a foggy night, Huck, in the canoe, gets separated from Jim and the raft. He tries to paddle back to the raft, but the fog is so thick that he loses all sense of direction. After a  time spent adrift, Huck finds Jim sleeping on the raft. When he wakes up, Jim is ecstatic to see Huck alive. Huck tries to trick Jim by pretending that Jim dreamed up their entire separation. Jim catches on when he notices all the debris that collected on the raft while it was adrift gets mad at Huck for trying to trick him, especially after he had been so worried. Huck eventually apologizes and feels bad. Jim and Huck worry that they will miss their desired destination, Cairo, which is a town at the mouth of the river that runs into the free states. Huck has issues with his conscience and feeling guilt about helping Jim escape from his "rightful owner," Miss Watson, especially after all she's done for Huck. Jim tells Huck about his plans to  earn money in the free states to buy the freedom of his wife and children have some abolitionists kidnap them if the master refuses. Huck secretly plans to give Jim up, but can't bring himself to follow through when Jim expresses that is his only friend and the only one to keep a promise. They come across some men who want to search the raft for escaped slaves. Huck lies that his family is aboard and suffering from smallpox. Fearful of the disease, the men tell Huck to get help further downstream and give him 40 dollars in gold. Huck feels guilt for not giving Jim up, but realises he would feel the same guilt if he went through with his plan and decides to disregard morality. As they pass several towns, Huck and Jim become more worried that they missed Cairo and decide to stop for the night and continue their journey of the canoe the next morning. When discovering that the canoe had been stolen, they blame it of the bad luck from snakeskin on Jackson’s Island. A steamboat crashes in to the raft and breaks it. Jim and Huck dive off but are again separated. When Huck reaches the shore, he is cornered by a pack of dogs. These events contribute the the major themes of the novel as they touch on the major themes of racism and slavery, freedom, and a the hypocrisy of society. While Huck could be considered open minded, readers see as he still subscribes to the Southern white conception of the world and the way the world should be. He also mentions that Jim is smart... for a black person. Huck also struggles with whether or not to abandon Jim or turn him over to the men who ask if he's harboring any runaway slaves. Huck also harbors the idea that Miss. Watson is a good person as she had always made an effort to teach Huck how to fulfill societal expectations, specifically manners and Christian ways.  Huck's decision to disregard what he saw as morality represents a huge step in his development as he makes the decision to keep his promise to Jim based on his conscious and rejects the societal teachings he was raised with.
