"oh,Yes this is a wonderful goverment, Wonderful.There was a free N there, from Ohio; they said he could vote, I drawed out. I says i'll never vote again. They call that a goverment that can't sell a free N till he's been in the State six months. Here's a goverment that calls itself a goverment, and lets on to be a goverment, and thinks it is a goverment, and yet got to set stockstill for six whole months befor it can take ahold of a prowling, thieving,infrnal, White-shirted free N, and ---" CH-6, Page-20-21, Par-3
- What a great goverment , thereway a black person that came from Ohio that was alowed to vote, so I desided to never vote again.and you cant sell a black person intill he a U.S for 1/2 a year, i think this goverment is bad it just trying to make people think its a goverment i hate it alote.
- i say its pritty unfair to what the goverment does not sideing with Huck's dad pap, its fair that black people get to vote there a part of the U.S to, i remeber that one day that i tryed to vote at one place for kids and i wosent able to vote because i had to be 1 year older then i was at the time,
- i believe that mark twain thought that this paragraph to be about the old day were there was still slavery and being racist, and how some white people were to disagree about black people got to vote, and how unfair it was to the black people that they could be sold after a half year. Mark Twain or"huck Finn" probly thought that blacks being able to vote was fair, and that they could be sold after half year was every unfair. Mark Twain was in the U.S civil war and desided to go with the north even wene he was signed to the south this to do with how his dad was talking about blacks and how the goverment was not being harsh enough tword them.
