Bunny and Sue thought the next day would never come! But it did, and they were up bright and early. After breakfast they sat out on the porch, waiting for Mr. Tallman to drive over with Toby. Every now and then they would run to the gate to look down the road. At last Bunny cried:
"Here he comes, Sue!"
"Oh, has he got Toby?"
"Yep! He's driving him and the cart! Oh! Oh!"
"Oh! Oh!" shouted Sue, and then the two children ran down the street, and when they reached the pony, which Mr. Tallman brought to a stop, Bunny Brown and his Sister Sue threw their arms around Toby's neck and hugged him.
"Oh, we're so glad!" they said. "Now, we're going to ride and look for your red-and-yellow box, Mr. Tallman."
"Well, I hope you find it, but I'm afraid you won't. Anyhow, here's Toby for you, and now——"
Just then there was a sound of carriage wheels, grating in a sudden stop, near the little basket cart, while a harsh voice said:
"Ha! So, I've found you; have I? Now give me that pony and don't make any more fuss about it!"
