The tone is reassuring and instructive.
In the beginning of "Cub-Pilot on the Mississippi," the tone is reflective and nostalgic as the narrator looks back on his experiences as a young pilot on the river. There is a sense of awe and admiration for the beauty and complexity of the river life, as well as a hint of youthful enthusiasm and eagerness to learn.
"A "cub pilot" was one name for an apprentice riverboat pilot, most notably on the Mississippi River during the 19th century. Such training was detailed in the 1883 book Life on the Mississippi by Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain). (* For aircraft, the Piper J-3 "Cub" was built between 1938 and 1947, and still flown today.)"

Mark feels guilty because he hit brown
Bahaha. This is a K12 text question. :) The questions are very irrelevant. :'(
The Captain and Brown are in a conflict at the end of the story because Brown is arguing that Twain should be thrown off the boat and gives the captain an ultimatum. The Captain chooses Twain over Brown.
For a good summary read the book so you can understand it. BTW: it is not that long!! Don't be lazy.
Because brown was very mean to him.
