Yet after Tom and his friends witness a murder, for whom the wrong person is blamed, his summer of adventures truly begins.

From Mark Twain: "My book is intended mainly for the entertainment of young boys and girls. I hope it will not be shunned by men and women on that account, for part of my plan has been to remind adults of what they once were themselves, and of how they felt and thought and talked, and what queer enterprises they sometimes engaged in."

He along with his friend Huck Finn accidentally witnesses a murder for which an innocent man is wrongly accused.
