Why does Pap call Huck the angel of death?

Could you please elaborate on the context of the passage you've mentioned? However, in a general sense, when someone refers to someone else as the "angel of death," it often carries a negative or ominous connotation. It might suggest that the person being called the "angel of death" brings about harm, suffering, or even death to others. In the case of Pap calling Huck the "angel of death," it could imply that Pap believes Huck is somehow responsible for bringing misfortune or hardship upon him or those around him. But again, without more context, it's difficult to provide a definitive explanation.
