Chapter 10: Dire Prophecy of the Howling Dog

At the beginning of this chapter, Tom and Huck decide that they were going to sign a paper that said that they "Wouldn't tell what happened at the murder of Dr. Robinson."  After they made the paper agreement they had to sign in blood that was buried into the ground in a boxed locked with a key.  The boys were walking back and heard a stray dog howling in the night until the stray dog stopped after many howls.  Both Tom and Huck heard snoring.  The boys tip-toed over to see who it was and it was Muff Potter.  they stepped on a branch and Muff Potter moved and then went back to sleep.  Tom returned to bed and fell asleep right away but Sid was still awake.  Tom woke up and went down to breakfast, but when they were done eatingAunt Polly asked why Tom would want to break her heart.  Tom begged for forgiveness but she did not respond to him and told him to go to school.  As the day went on, Tom discovered his brass knob is his desk drawer.
