se after all," said
his mother, "even if it wasn't grandpa's."

Bunny thought so too, as he looked at the nice peaches and pears which
the farmer had sent over.

It did rain that night, but not very hard, and Bunker, instead of coming
into the automobile to sleep, hung some canvas curtains around his cot
under the car, and slept there. He said he liked to be out in the rain,
and he had often been on one of Mr. Brown's boats, all night, out on the
bay in a storm.

It was bright and clear in the morning, and, after a good breakfast,
they started off again. Bunny and Sue, looking from the windows of the
automobile, hoped to see some other horses, which might really be
grandpa's missing ones, but they were disappointed.

Nothing much happened for the rest of the trip, which lasted another
day. If Mr. Brown had wished to hurry he could have gone to grandpa's in
two days, but he took his time.

On the afternoon of the third day Bunker Blue steered the big machine
down a little hill. At the foot was a big white house, with a red barn
back of it.

"There's grandpa's!" called Mr. Brown.

"Yes, and there is grandpa himself standing at the gate to meet us!"
Mrs. Brown said. "Wave your hands to him, Bunny and Sue!"

The children did, from the windows of the automobile. Then Bunker
steered it up the driveway. Bunny and Sue jumped out.

"Hello, Grandpa!" cried Bunny.

"Hello, Grandma!" laughed Sue.

And, a second later, they were being hugged by the dear old couple,
while Mr. and Mrs. Brown got out of the automobile more slowly.

"Oh, Grandpa, did you find your horses the Gypsies took?" Bunny asked.

"No," answered Grandpa Brown. "I guess I'll never see 'em again! And it
was my best team, too!" and he shook his head sadly.

CHAPTER XI

IN THE GARDEN

Bunny Brown and his sister Sue walked up the path to the house with
Grandpa Brown. Sue had hold of one of grandpa's hands, and Bunny the
other. Behind them came father and mother, with Grandma Brown.

"Are you glad to see us, Grandpa?" asked Sue.

"Glad to see you? Well I should say I am!" cried grandpa. "I thought you
would never get here. And what a fine big auto you came in!"

"It's a moving van," Bunny explained. "You put pianos and chairs and
tables in it, and you take them to the new house, when you move. Only we
didn't move our things--we moved just ourselves."

"We had lots of fun!" cried Sue.

"It certainly is a nice way to travel," said Grandp
