Cool! Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a great book. The aunt is threatening to hit Jim if he doesn't do his work. If he helps Tom with the whitewashing of the fence, then she will "whitewash" Jim's backside. "She allowed that SHE would attend to the whitewashing." which means "she threatened that SHE would hit Jim up and down just like whitewashing a fence." Enjoy the book! The vernacular can be quite hard to understand, but it's worth it!
