BOB AND THE GRIZZLEE BARE.
Author of Toby Tyler, Tim and Tip, etc.
It was quite a task to extract the porcupine quills from Mr. Stubbs's brother, because the operation was painful, and he danced about in a way that seriously interfered with the work.
But the last one was out after a time, and the monkey was marched along between Joe and Toby, looking very repentant now that he was in his master's power again.
I tell you what it is, said Joe, sagely, after he had walked awhile in silence as if studying some matter, we'd better get about six big chains an' fasten Mr. Stubbs's brother to the tent; 'cause if we keep on tryin' to train him, he'll keep on gettin' loose, an' before he gets through with it, we sha'n't have any show left.
I think that's the best thing we can do, panted Leander; 'cause if all hands of us has to start out many times like this, some of the boys will come up while we're off, an' pull the tent down.
We can tie him in the tent, and have him for a wild man of Borneo, suggested Joe.
I guess we won't train him, replied Toby, rather sorry to deprive his pet of the pleasure of being one of the performers, and yet fearing the trouble he would cause if they should try to make anything more than an ordinary monkey out of him.
The pursuit had led the boys farther from home than they were aware of, and it was noon when, weary and hungry, they arrived at the tent, where they found the other party, who had given up the search some time before. They had travelled through the woods without hearing or seeing anything of the runaway, and had returned in the hope that the others had been more successful.
Leaving Mr. Stubbs's brother in charge of the partners, who, it was safe to say, would now take very good care to prevent his escape, Toby hurried into the house to see Abner.
