- Huck wouldn't have given it a second look: a dusty old
- package covered with hen scratchin' in an attic trunk. There,
- for perhaps a century, lay the first half of the manuscript of
- Mark Twain's HUCKLEBERRY FINN, 665 pages written and corrected
- by the author. The discovery, announced last week, was made by
- a descendant of James Fraser Gluck, a manuscript collector, who
- found the pages in her Hollywood home. The manuscript may be
- reunited with the second half, now in a Buffalo library.
