A continuation of the new serial in 26 parts based on the stories by Mark Twain.

Huck has been reported missing. His father is seen and questioned but denies all knowledge of the boy's whereabouts. Meanwhile Huck has escaped from the cabin his father locked him in, and has ransacked the place to make it look as if robbers have kidnapped him. Pap concludes that Huck has been killed and tells the townsfolk. But Huck has really fled to an uninhabited island and feels free at last.
