They ate their lunch in a restaurant, and before coming out Sue said:
"Ask the man if he knows where we can get a pony, Daddy!"
"What man, Sue?"
"The man in the restaurant. The man that brought us such nice things to eat."
"Oh, you mean the waiter! Well, I will," said Mr. Brown with a smile.
And, as he paid the bill, the fish dealer did ask the waiter if he knew whether any one in the town of East Milford had ponies for sale.
"Well, there's a livery stable over in the next street," was the answer. "They might have some ponies."
"Oh, let's go and see!" begged Bunny.
