Chapter 9: Tragedy in the Graveyard

This chapter is about a tragedy in the graveyard.  When Sid and Tom finish saying their prayers, Sid falls right to sleep.  Tom was still awake and listening to to his house creek.  When the clock struck ten, Tom was still awake but a little while later Tom heard a bottle against the shed and sprang out of his bed and got dressed and then snuck out the window.  Tom ran and got up on the shed roof and saw Huck with his dead cat.  Tom followed Huck to the graveyard until they got scared and hid behind a gravestone talking about a ghost coming to get them.  They then thought what they had seen was a devil and held each other.    What they thought were devils were actually people; Injun Joe, Dr. Robinson and Muff Potter.  They dug up a grave and then Joe stabbed the Doctor and blamed it on the drunken Muff Potter.  Tom and Huck were very scared and promised not to tell nobody but themselves about the tragedy.
