In 'The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,' Huck learned that Mrs. Loftus' husband was going to use a gun to capture and turn in his friend, Jim for the reward money. While she was compassionate toward Huck's plight as a runaway child, she had no such compassion for a runaway slave.
Huck learns from Mrs. Judith Loftus that there is a reward out for Jim, and that there are men searching for him. She also tells Huck that there are rumors circulating about Jim's whereabouts, making Huck realize that they need to be cautious in their travels.
Mrs. Loftus is a character in Mark Twain's novel "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn." She is a kind widow who takes care of Huck when he pretends to be a girl named Sarah Williams. Mrs. Loftus figures out Huck's true identity but promises to keep his secret.
When Huck visits Mrs. Loftus, he pretends to be a girl named Sarah Williams from Hookerville, who is visiting relatives in the town. This disguise allows him to gather information discreetly about the search for Jim.

Huck and Jim argue about English and French. Huck wants to learn French to look educated, while Jim argues that English is more important due to its widespread use in America.
Huck doesn't turn Jim in because Jim in Huck's first TRUE friend. Jim is also the only "family" Huck has ever had that cares so much about him and will protect him.
I've only read the book a couple of time, but I think that Jim taught Huck that some adults don't leave. Through their journeys, Jim is constantly supportive and caring and loyal to Huck, who in turn becomes so to Jim. Jim shows Huck how true humanity should be, which is ironic because Jim is considered sub-human by all the members of "The Quality."
He told Huck that Jim had been sold as a runaway slave!!!
Huck feels free to tease Jim because of the societal norms and racial attitudes of the time that diminished the humanity of African Americans like Jim. Huck, being a product of his environment, does not fully comprehend the impact of his actions on Jim due to his own privilege as a white person.
