"There he is! There! There!"
"Who?" asked his father.
"That big dog that took mother's pocketbook in his mouth and bounced away with it!" was the answer. "There he goes!"
Bunny pointed out a large, yellowish-brown dog just running around the corner of the next street. Then Bunny pulled his hand from his father's and raced after the strange animal.
"I'll make him show me where mother's ring and pocketbook are!" cried Bunny as he ran down the street.
CHAPTER VII
THE SLEEP-WALKER
So quickly did Bunny Brown pull away from his father to run after the strange dog that Mr. Brown had no chance to call to the little boy to be careful. Sue, however, who had hold of her father's other hand, seemed anxious.
"Maybe the dog will bite Bunny!" exclaimed the little girl. "Sometimes Splash used to growl if you took a bone away from him, and maybe this dog will growl if Bunny takes the pocketbook away from him."
