Colonel Sherburn
Colonel Sherburn from Advetnures of Huckleberry Finn
In "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," Jim is falsely accused of shooting Boggs, but the actual person who shot him was Colonel Sherburn. Boggs was a drunk man who challenged Colonel Sherburn, resulting in his fatal shooting.
In "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," Colonel Sherburn is a wealthy, respected man in a small town who is known for his bravery and strong character. He is involved in a significant scene where he shoots a man in public and stands up to a mob, highlighting themes of justice and morality in the novel.
The townspeople want to lynch Colonel Sherburn because he shot and killed a man, Boggs, in the town square. They seek justice and retribution for Boggs' death and view lynching as a form of vigilante justice.
Sherburn shot the drunk man in self-defense when the man threatened him with a gun. Sherburn believed he had the right to protect himself from harm.
The lynching mob fails because after Colonel Sherburn makes a powerful speech shaming them for their cowardice and lack of courage to act alone, he draws a gun and intimidates them into dispersing. Sherburn's display of strength and authority exposes the mob's weakness and causes them to back down.
In Mark Twain's "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," the incident occurs when Colonel Sherburn shoots and kills a drunk man, Boggs, who threatens him in the town square. Sherburn then proceeds to confront the angry mob that forms, delivering a speech that criticizes their cowardice and proceeds to shame them for their behavior. The mob ultimately disperses without taking any action against Sherburn.
