Solomon's Last Fight and Hidden Messages
In chapter 29 Solomon's Last Fight, Jack returns to camp with a brief, hopeful message from Henry Thornhill about a danger passed downriver. Margaret and Mrs. Arnold travel by barge, while Jack faces a perilous encounter with Slops as danger closes in. The scene blends romance, loyalty, and looming threat as the pursuit tightens. Daily Vacation Bible School is withdrawn due to lack of helper teachers, though no opposition to the project is indicated.
