They make fires, catch fish and sleep under the stars. They also make a boat to travel up and down the river. Without seeing the boys for days, the people in the town think that they have died. One day, when Tom comes back to his aunt's house to leave a letter saying that he is not dead, he hears his aunt talking about his funeral(葬礼).Then Tom has an idea. On the morning of their funeral, the boys run back into town and attend their own funeral before telling everyone that they are still alive.
