"By the way, Sara," he said, suddenly breaking in on the conversation that went on at his back, and thereby betraying a secret wish that was taking shape in his mind, "what have you done with the little red runabout you had a year or two ago?" She started. "You mean " As she hesitated, he went on. "It would come in very handy for twosome tours." "I disposed of it some time ago, Leslie," said she.
The Fearless was even prettier than its picture, and there wasn't a runabout in town in the same class with it. Then our lessons began, which we took separately, because there was only room on the seat for two, and nobody wanted the other members of the syndicate to see him running into the curb or trying to climb trees.
She had barely disappeared through the little white door, and the tinker thrown himself down with his back to the sign-post which marked the roads, when a sorrel mare and a runabout came racing down the road over which they had just come.
When they reached the house, Patty went straight up to Mr. Kenerley, and said in a low tone, "Jim, I want to ask a favour of you." "Anything at all, Patty Pink; anything, to the half of my kingdom!" "Well, I want the little car, the runabout; and I want to go off for a little while, all by myself." "Patty! You amaze me! Does this mean a clandestine meeting with a rustic swain?
The seat of a runabout can be made to hold four, on a pinch, and there is still standing-room for several other adaptable persons. The rest of the party walked, and the little house around the corner was soon the scene of a boisterous reunion. Mary's conversation was as abundant and amusing as ever, and she did not show any signs of the weariness that her letter had made so much of.
"Where do you reckon it is?" asked Ned, as they sped onward. "Hard to say," remarked the young inventor, as he steered to one side to pass a powerful imported automobile which, however, did not have the speed of the electric runabout. "A fire at night is always deceiving as to direction. But we can locate it when we get to the top of the hill."
There were, indeed, now two doctors in Buckville: the former old man with a soft name, who wore long whiskers which served to hide the missing collar and cravat, who had for forty years ministered to the needs of the surrounding country, who rode a pacing mare and carried medicines in a saddle-bag across her back; and he of the hard name, who had lately come as graduate of the University, who visited the sick in a gasoline runabout of uncertain age which steered with a lever and heaved prodigiously, who wrote prescriptions to be filled at the drug-store.
"We'll get there in plenty of time unless we have a breakdown which I don't expect." "Don't be too sure of that. This carriage is none too good. I said so when Abner Filbury brought it around for me." "The wheels do appear to be somewhat shaky," remarked Sam. "We miss the biplane, for making quick trips," returned Tom, with a sigh. "We ought to get a runabout an auto runabout, I mean."
Fanny, with the strain of Theodore's debut and leave-taking behind her, and the prospect of a high-tension business talk with Fenger ahead, drank in the beauty of the wayside woods gratefully. Fenger met her at the station. She had never seen him so boyish, so exuberant. He almost pranced. "Hop in," he said. He had driven down in a runabout. "Brother get off all right? Gad! He CAN play.
"Wonder what he thinks he can do," growled Hicks as they sat in the runabout and watched Harry pass them. "Trying to break his own neck for nothing," replied Owen. "If he keeps up that speed we'll get both birds with one sand bag." "I hope so. He didn't speak, did he? You can see by the way he acts he don't want us around even now." "It doesn't matter what he wants it's what he does."
