The dead man found in the floating house in chapter 9 was pap. The man was shot in the back, and Jim told Huck not to look at his face because it was "too gashly." He then covered him up with rags, but, at the time, Huck didn't even look at him once because he didn't want to see him. Huck did not know until the last page of the book that that was his father, when Jim revealed the identity of the dead man in the house.
