Letter to Tom

Dear Tom,

 I here your havin trouble with that gal Becky Thatcher. That day you kissed her was good and all but I here you made the stupidest move by tellin her about your other girl friend. You did well on your approach and all but never do that again unless you really do want to make a girl like her mad again. I also hear that you witnessed a major body snatchen while there was a murder-taking place at the same time. The superstition is that it will kill you dead in your tracks and make you rot if you ever tell about something Potter never did.. Those are some really serious problems so how about I get you the advice you really need and probably want.
 Here’s some good advice for use in the future. About Becky, you should at least try to calm her down for a couple of minutes and try to explain to her what you really meant. But still never do that again ok. If you can get her for a couple of minutes I am pretty sure you may still be able to get her back. One more thing about this situation, do NOT try to show off. Now, about the murder. My advice is to face facts and go against the superstition for once and see if it’s a fake or if it’s true so you could be helping one person while still helping the rest of the town. From my opinion I would never mind superstitions again. They’re either going to get you into trouble or give you nightmares or something of that sort. I say you start off by telling your aunt and giving evidence to show that Potter is innocent. Then keep on telling more and more people to convince that Potter is really innocent and didn’t murder no one. The good side of this advice is you’d be doing everyone a favor and then they might tend to like you more than hate like everyone does to Huck because he trespasses and disrupts other people’s property and privacy.
 I’d say my advice is good because I seen things like this happen before and it tends to get pretty bad. Over the years I’ve learned by watching, listening, and reading about other people’s life and situation. Some examples are: talk shows, radio shows, T V shows, and even books. Well I think all that humbo jumbo superstition stuff is just plain balony. Who would believe that if you said a spell or something that your warts would go away. By watching older girls and boys it’s pretty darn obvious what to do and what not to do when talking. They also have these soap channels that are really dumb and have no point to them. Sometimes things are so ridiculous that it’s not even funny. My parents also taught me crew ship manners when I was 6 years old. That taught me how to treat other people. I could understand that back then people had very very open minds on magic and superstitions. It’s been crazy how many weird superstitions people have come up with. Some spells cure warts and some are supposed to give you clothes when a inch caterpillar crawls on you because they think it’s measuring you. Another one is when you get spunk water, say the magic words, then your warts will magically disappear. Huck said getting a dead cat and bringing it to a grave and waiting for the devils and then your warts would go away.   PS, write back!
 

Sincerely,
