Huckleberry Finn

Huck believes that Pap's return means that he is after his money (the $6,000 that he got from sharing the treasure with Tom). Thus, Huck goes to Judge Thatcher and begs the Judge to take all his money as a gift. The Judge is quite surprised by the request, but when Huck refuses to reveal why he wants to give away his money, Judge Thatcher agrees to "buy" it for one dollar, saying he will take the money "for a consideration."
