How'd She Find out?!?!
Huck got busted. When he went to the woman's house, she figured out he was a guy, and his charade was off. She noticed a lot about what he did that easily tipped her off. This could, for a reason, be that at this time, Huck was very uncouth in his appearance and behaviors. Such as things like the way he threaded the needle, the way he threw the lump of lead, the way he caught the lump of lead between his legs. Also, he changed his name by accident when he was asked. Something like that could easily tip off someone as to having a false personality, and shown that he is not truly a girl. The woman can be compared to other characters that Huck runs into, such as the robbers or the ship watchman. She is much nicer, and quite considerate in helping Huck out in his situation. Also, I've noticed that Huck lies to everyone he's met so far. He lied to the watchman, and the woman. The woman figured him out, but he still lied to keep his charade on. Also, so far, this book is very interesting and informative and gives insight into what life was like back in the early 1800's.
