Brown brought around the automobile in which the trip to Wayville was to be made. Bunny and Sue, Lucile and Mart were to sit in the back, while Mr. Brown and Mr. Treadwell sat in front. They were going to the place where the theatrical scenery had been stored since the time the vaudeville troupe had got into trouble.
"Say, you've had lots of things happen to you, haven't you?" "Quite a few," answered the boy actor. "I've traveled around a good bit. But I think I like it here better than anywhere I've been." "I do too," said Lucile. "Traveling everyday makes one tired." A little later they reached Wayville, and Mr. Treadwell told Mr. Brown where to go in the automobile to look at the scenery.
The automobile was going down a snowy hill into Wayville, and Mr. Brown had put on the brakes, for, once or twice, the machine had slid from side to side. "I ought to have chains on the back wheels," said the fish merchant to Mr. Treadwell. "But if I go slowly I guess I'll be all right.
Brown and the impersonator went over to Wayville to get the baggage of the theatrical folk. Mr. Brown was going to pay the board bills. Bunny and Sue wanted to go also, but their father said: "I'll take you along when we go to look at the scenery. You'd only be in the way now, and wouldn't have a good time."
"We want to go to Wayville, to our Uncle Henry's," explained the blue- eyed little boy. "All right," answered the conductor. "I'll let you off at Wayville, though I don't know your Uncle Henry." He rang the bell twice, and off went the trolley car, carrying Bunny and Sue to new adventures. Bunny and Sue leaned back in the trolley car seat, and felt very happy.
Bunny suddenly cried, as the trolley car stopped to take on some passengers at the street corner. "What shall we do, Bunny?" Sue was always ready to follow where her brother led. "Let's take our five cents and have a trolley ride! We can go to Wayville and see Uncle Henry. He'd like to see us." "But if we go on the trolley it costs five cents," Sue objected, "and we can't buy the balloons."
The conductor came along the step of the car, which was an open one, to collect the fares. Bunny and Sue each handed him a five cent piece, and he handed them each back two pennies. "Oh, I didn't know we got any change!" exclaimed Bunny, in surprise "The fare to Wayville is only three cents, for such little tots as you," the conductor said. "Are you sure you know where you are going?" he asked.
They were on their way to get them, with Splash, the dog, walking along the street behind them, when a trolley car came along. The trolley ran from Bellemere, where Bunny and Sue lived, to Wayville, the next town. In Wayville lived Uncle Henry, who was a brother of Mrs. Brown's. "Oh, Sue! I know what let's do!"
I'll be glad to work for a meal. There wasn't money enough for breakfast and car fare too, but I thought there was a better chance for work here than in Wayville, and so my sister and I came on." "And where did you say she was?" asked Mrs. Brown. "I left her sitting in the little park down by the water front, while I came up into the town to look for work.
Reinberg said, when he came back to the automobile, in which Bunny and Sue were waiting. "I'll take you on to Wayville." "Our Uncle Henry lives there," Bunny told the dry-goods man. "Well, I don't know that I shall have time to take you to see him, but we'll have a ride." "We 'most went to Uncle Henry's once," said Sue.
