CHAPTER XVIII
LOST
Clipclap and Star Face, the two sturdy little ponies, trotted bravely along, carrying Teddy and Janet on their backs. The ponies did not wonder where they were going—they hardly ever did that. They were satisfied to go wherever their master or mistress guided them, for they knew the children would be good to them.
"Do you s'pose we'll find any Indians?" asked Janet after a while.
"Maybe," answered Teddy. "Are you scared?"
"No," replied his sister slowly. "I was just thinking maybe we could find 'em, and get back Uncle Frank's horses, even if the cowboys didn't."
"Maybe we could!" cried Teddy. "That would be great! Wouldn't daddy be surprised!"
"And Uncle Frank, too!" added Janet
"Yes, and the cowboys! Then they'd think we could ride all right!" went on Ted.
"Come on, let's hurry! Gid-dap!" he called to Clipclap.
