In the novel Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain Twain uses a contrast of characters to bring out the Society vs Freedom aspect of the novel through the two characters of Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer Tom Sawyer throughout the novel uses rules and what is always done in the books to control how he and Huck do things On the other hand Huck goes for the simple things that help him and come the easiest to him when planning things out In the beginning of the novel Tom tries to start a band of robbers and brings all of his gang to a secret hideout to sort out the details and rules that they would abide by Tom Sawyer is always telling his little gang how they have to follow the books that he has read cause that is how it is done and it would not be right to do otherwise For example When Tom brings up the act of ransoming people and none of the boys know what that is they agree that they probably should take it out of the oath Tom disagrees and says Why blame it all we've got to do it Don't I tell you it's in the books Do you want to go to doing things different than what's in the books and get things all muddled up 12 Since all the boys want to follow Tom they keep in the part about ransoming even though they do not know exactly what it is
