Buck
A younger member of the Grangerford family who had died many years earlier was Buck Grangerford. He was the son of the Grangerford family and is mentioned in Mark Twain's "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn." His death occurred in a feud between the Grangerfords and the Shepherdsons, which serves as a commentary on the senselessness of violence and family honor. Buck's character exemplifies the tragic consequences of such conflicts.
The short answer to the question of how Col. Grangerford contrasts with Pap Finn is "in every way possible". More specifically, Colonel Grangerford was everything to Huck that Pap wasn't. Where Pap was a mean drunk, the colonel was a gentleman who drank, but never to excess. Pap was violent and disrespectful, the Colonel believed in being the bigger man, and commanded respect. The Colonel was neat and orderly, Pap was often found drunk in a ditch. It is not coincidence that the boy Grangerford in the story, around Huck's age, is named "Buck". Buck has many similarities to Huck, and Buck could be seen as, essentially, what Huck could have been had he had the right role model.
