Huckleberry Finn and His Friends

Meet The Grangerfords (1x18)

Air date: Apr 29, 1980

Tired and worn out after the raft accident Huck comes across a large farm estate a few hundred yards from the river. After some initial scepticism the Grangerford family who live there take pity on Huck and welcome him into their home. They explain to him that they were afraid he may have been a member of a rival family called the Shepherdsons whom they are having a live in feud with. Huck fakes his identity and introduces himself as George Jackson. He settles in well with the family, making good friends with one of the boys, Buck, and even being awarded his own slave. However on a hunting trip Huck soon realises the true scale of the feud when Buck spots and attempts to shoot one of the Shepherdons from his horse.
