Pap is a drunk and is careless.

Why is he a drunk, because he gets "drunk as a fiddler".

Why is he careless, because that does not sound very safe to "clumb out on to the porch-roof and slid down a stanchion". Also he sounds kind of dumb to sell a coat for forty-rod whisky to get drunk. "traded his new coat for a jug of forty-rod".

The light, then, is the light that her friendship brought to his life. Her friendship is light -- it is happiness and is joy to Tom. When the two friends stop hanging out, the light goes out of the marsh. The author is saying the joy has gone out of Tom's life. 



Ruby becomes disappointed with Tom when the hose leaks and Ruby can no longer dive. The two stop hanging out, and Tom loses her friendship.
