 The Duke and king come aboard the raft with Huck and Jim and act to be the authority. They perform their original cons the Duke makes nine bucks, and the king draws a scam at a spiritual body to collect over $80.The king learns Shakespeare from the Duke and they prepare for a show. Both men present The Royal Nonesuch scam and make the bank in doing the show. Both Duke dresses Jim up as an Arab. The king plays to be the British preacher Harvey Wilks to scam money from late Peter Wilks's family while the Duke plays onward as the deaf-mute brother, William. The men use their Royal Nonesuch money to make up a shortfall in the bequest. The king assures the Duke to milk this timeliness for all it is deserving. Both men avoid the escape by the skin of their points when the real brothers show up. When he is smothered by the duke, the king confesses to stealing the gold even though he didn't steal the gold, although he sorts of did lift it from the proper heirs. Who can keep track of these days? The king sets up Jim to be captured and uses the $40 to get drunk. The Duke then lies to Huck about Jim's locations although, to his honor, he almost tells him the truth. Great! That means the townspeople should nearly not tar and feather him.
