He actually believes everything he says is right, and remains calm the whole time, even in the face of overwhelming irritation and anger, such as during the conversation with Morris about the proposal.…

    Wealth and money and the lack of both are concepts that are seen at various moments throughout Mark Twain’s novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. In the novel, there are some characters and families that extremely rich and rank high in status. The Grangerfords, a family who allows young Huckleberry Finn to stay with them, are such a family.
