After the eating, the singing, playing and dancing went on more wild and noisy than before, but Bunny and Sue were not allowed to stay up very late. And so, rather wishing they might remain longer, they were led away, and a little while afterwards were snug in bed, listening to the faint and far-off sounds of the colored jubilee.
Two days later Mr. Brown, having finished his business in Georgia, started with his family for Orange Beach, Florida.
"We had a lovely time here!" said Sue to Grace, as they parted.
"Most fun I ever had in my life!" added Bunny. But then as he said that about nearly every place he had visited, I am beginning to think he had a very happy disposition.
"Don't eat too many oranges!" Grace called to Sue, as the Southern children watched their little guests climb aboard the train that was to take them to Florida.
"I won't," Sue promised.
"And don't let an alligator catch you!" begged Sam of Bunny.
"I'll catch them!" declared the little fellow.
"Good-by! Good-by!" was echoed back and forth.
Then the train pulled out of the small station of Seedville, and once more Bunny Brown and his sister Sue were on their journey. And many things were to happen before they reached home again.
