Cousin Mary is Tom and Sid's cousin, who is between four and eight years older than Tom, making her about 14-18. She is sweet, tender, religious, and the only authority figure that Tom has any respect for. She was modelled after Mark Twain's older sister, Pamela, and takes her name from the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus. Mary is a near saint, a wonderful student, and the antidote to the annoying Sid. She is depicted as being a girl of average height with beautiful brown hair and blue eyes, like her namesake. Her relationship to the Sawyer family is a mystery. She is usually referred to as Mary Sawyer, but her last name is never mentioned, much like Aunt Polly's. She may be Aunt Polly's daughter, or Aunt Polly's niece depending on how the literature is interpreted. She has memorized thousands of psalms from the bible, and never does or says anything that is not respectable. In much fan fiction regarding The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, she is portrayed as boy-crazy, as it is suspected that she is hiding something behind her religious exterior. She is often portrayed in these stories as having a romantic relationship with Huckleberry Finn, while adaptations of the play have included subtext suggesting that she may be in love with Joe Harper. Mary is always shown to be kind to Tom, no matter what he does.
