He said we were disturbing the peace of the town." "He didn't, did he?" Bunny exclaimed, and then went off into such fits of laughter that for some time he could do nothing but cough and choke. "He couldn't have chosen a funnier man. A sneeze is about the biggest row you have ever made in your life. Didn't you tell him you had nothing to do with the rag?" he asked at last.
When Saltash arrived that evening he found Bunny and Jake sauntering together in the sunset glow along the gravelled terrace in front of the house. He shot towards them in his car with that characteristic suddenness of his, swerving and coming to a stand before the porch with the confident ease of an alighting bird. And here, seated in the porch and screened by white clematis, he found Maud.
"It doesn't interest me much," quoth I. "Indeed, this American smart set don't appeal to me either for its smartness or its setness." "Bunny!" cried Henriette, with a silvery ripple of laughter. "Do be careful. An epigram from you? My dear boy, you'll be down with brain-fever if you don't watch out." "Humph!" said I, with a shrug of my shoulders.
However, a show in a real theater is quite different, and I hardly believe Bunny and Sue will go on with the idea." But Bunny and Sue did at least they started talking it over the first thing next day, and when school was over quite a gathering of boys and girls assembled in a room over the Brown garage.
As you say, there is not much point in our quarrelling. There's nothing to quarrel about that I can see except that you've called me a liar for no particular good reason!" "Do you object to that?" said Bunny. Saltash made a careless gesture. "Perhaps -as you say it isn't worth it.
"I'll get you another one. I see two," and Bunny pointed to them up in the tree. "You can't reach 'em," asserted Sue. "They're too high, Bunny." "I I can climb the tree," said the little boy. "I can climb the tree and get them." "You'll fall," Sue said. "No, I won't, Sue. You just watch me." The peach tree was a low one, with branches close to the ground.
"Ho, hum! I wonder what will happen to me to-day?" "Are you going out again?" asked Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy, the muskrat lady housekeeper. "It seems to me that you go out a great deal, Mr. Longears." "Well, yes; perhaps I do," admitted the bunny uncle. "But more things happen to me when I go out than when I stay in the house." "And do you like to have things happen to you?" asked Miss Fuzzy Wuzzy.
Brown as soon as he heard Bunny's cry of "Wait!" at once shut off the power from the big automobile, and brought it to a stop. He turned to look through the little window at the back of the front seat against which he leaned, and asked: "What's the matter?" "Oh, Daddy, we've forgotten Splash!" wailed Bunny. "We've left him behind," chattered Sue.
And, as it was not much more fan than looking at a stone, to watch the closed-up turtle, Bunny and Sue soon grew tired of watching the slow- moving creature. Splash, too, seemed to think he was wasting time barking at such a thing, so he ran off to find something new. Once more the two children walked along the road.
And I should think the other boys ought to chip in and help you pay for it. That's what we used to do when I played ball. If a window was broken we all helped pay for it." "I'll help," offered one boy. "So will I!" said another. By this time Charlie Star and the boys who had started to run away began straggling back. They wondered why Bunny and his companions were not being chased by Mr. Morrison.
