Wopsie gave a funny little bow, that sent her black topknots of hair bobbing all over her head, and said:
"Pleased to meet yo' all, company! Pleased to meet yo'!"
Bunny and Sue thought Wopsie talked quite funnily, but they were too polite to say so. They looked at the little colored girl and smiled. And she smiled back at them.
"Home, George," said Miss Baker to one of the two men on the front seat of the automobile. The man touched his cap, and soon Bunny, Sue and their mother were being driven rapidly through the streets of New York in Aunt Lu's automobile.
"It's almost as big as the one we went in to grandpa's, in the country," said Bunny, as he looked around at the seats, and noticed the little electric lamp in the roof.
"But you can't sleep in it or cook in it," said Sue. "And there's no place for Splash or Bunker Blue."
"No," said Bunny. "That's so."
The children had had to leave Splash, the dog, home with Daddy Brown, and of course Bunker Blue did not come to Aunt Lu's.
"No, we can't sleep in my auto, nor eat, unless it is to eat candy, or cookies, or something like that," said Aunt Lu. "And I have some sweet crackers for the children, if you think it's all right for them to eat," said Aunt Lu to Mother Brown.
"Oh, yes. I guess it will be all right. They must be hungry, though they ate on the train."
