It was a long square, the shape of a grave; the rain had made it sink down and show the shape.
The minute we come and stood there we looked at one another and never said a word.
When the dog had dug down only a few inches he grabbed something and pulled it up, and it was an arm and a sleeve.
Tom kind of gasped out, and says: "Come away, Huck-it's found." I just felt awful.
We struck for the road and fetched the first men that come along.
They got a spade at the crib and dug out the body, and you never see such an excitement.
You couldn't make anything out of the face, but you didn't need to.
