Our hero ends up ​happy, however, as he and Huck discover a box of gold (that once belonged to Injun Joe), and the money is invested for them. Tom finds happiness and — much to his distress — Huck finds respectability by being adopted.

Escaping his clutches and finding his way out, Tom manages to alert the townspeople, who lock up the cave while leaving Injun Joe inside.

After yet another rejection by Becky Thatcher, Tom and Huck run off with their friend Joe Harper. They steal some food and head to Jackson's Island. They're not there long before they discover a search party looking for three boys presumed drowned and realize they are the boys in question.
