The farmer sent his boy every day with milk for those at Camp Rest-a-While, but this time Bunny and Sue had used more than usual, and Mrs. Brown had to send for some extra. It did not take Bunny and Sue long to reach the farmhouse, where their pail was filled by the farmer's wife.
"Well, I'll have to go now," said the children's father; "but I'll help you look for the Teddy doll and the train of cars when I come back," he said. It was a little sad in Camp Rest-a-While when Mr. Brown had gone, but Mother Brown let the children play store, with real things to eat and to sell, and they were soon happy again.
They all hoped that, for the strange boy was very well liked. Mrs. Brown remained at the tent to wash the breakfast dishes, since Tom was not there to do them, while the others Bunny, Sue, their father, Uncle Tad and Bunker went to the spring. It was on the side of a little hill, where grew many trees, and was about three minutes' walk from Camp Rest-a-While. Mr.
What the Indian meant was that he believed the toy train and the electrical Teddy bear would bring such good luck that the lost cow would soon be found. Mr. Brown had gone back to the city when Bunny and Sue, each one carrying a toy, and followed by Eagle Feather, came back to Camp Rest-a-While. Bunny was in worse condition than his sister, for he had rolled down the steep hill.
The Indian looked up from the toy train at which he was gazing in puzzled fashion. "That's mine," said Bunny, speaking slowly. He knew some of the Indians who lived on a reservation in the big woods, not far from Camp Rest-a-While. Some of them could speak fairly good English and understand it. Others knew only a few words and Bunny wanted to make sure this Indian understood him. "Huh!
After that the two children played Circus in the book of that name, and they had real animals in their show, though you could not exactly call them wild. "Bunny Brown and His Sister Sue at Aunt Lu's City Home," is the name of the fourth book, and in the big city Bunny and Sue had stranger adventures than ever. After that Mr. Brown took the whole family to "Camp Rest-a-While."
Bunny and Sue remembered this, so they knew that sometimes it was not even safe to get in a boat which was tied fast, unless some older person was with them. The man left the boat he had brought for Mr. Brown. It was a large one and would easily hold Bunny and Sue, as well as all the others at Camp Rest-a-While. "Now for the roast potatoes!" cried Uncle Tad. "Come on, children!
"That's it," laughed Bunny Brown. He was not afraid of the Indian. The men and the squaws, or women, used often to come to Camp Rest-a-While to sell their baskets, their bead work or bows and arrows. "That your train puff-puff cars. You take," said the Indian, handing the toy to the little boy. "Indian see him ready to swim in water, no t'ink good catch um." "I'm glad you did," said Bunny.
"It will be night before we know it, and we want a good place to sleep in at Camp Rest-a-While." "And are we going to have a fire, where we can cook something?" asked Bunny. "Yes, we'll have the oil stove set up." "I thought we would have a campfire," said the little boy. "So we shall!" exclaimed Uncle Tad. "I'll make a campfire for you, children, and we'll bake some potatoes in it.
What could it mean so many things being taken away? First Bunny's train of cars, then Sue's electric-eyed Teddy bear. Now Eagle Feather's horse was missing and he had come to Camp Rest-a-While to look for it, though why the children could not understand. Tom was kept busy roasting the ears of corn, and passing them around.
