** [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]]; it's noted that Huck is always the first boy to get out of shoes when the weather is warm and "the last to resume leather in the fall". He ''does'' own shoes, but until he's adopted no one cares about him enough to make him wear them.

* KarmaHoudini: Becky who snoops through Mr. Dobbins' desk and tears a valuable book really does deserve a whipping, even if she'd never been whipped in school before as she frets. But Tom ends up taking it for her. Yes, it is "noble" of him, but it's still grating considering that earlier she had allowed him to get an undeserved thrashing and whined about how he must have been spying on her when he accidentally caught her with Mr. Dobbins book.
