Jim;s Daughter
The Significance of the story is that his daughter has scarlet fever and is deaf. He did not know this when he began to yell at his daughter and he was remorseful. This truly shows that Jim's relationshp with Huck is only getting stronger and it a great example of the way the trip has brought them together because Jim is willing to tell the story of how his little daughter was wrongfully treated.
