CHAPTER V
MARGY'S CRAWL
Mother Bunker looked at the strange little boy. And the strange little boy looked at Mother Bunker.
"Where did you come from?" asked Mr. Bunker.
"Over there, and I'm hungry!" said the little fellow. "I'm terrible hungry, 'cause I didn't have no breakfast yet. Has you got any breakfast?" and he looked at each plate in turn, for the waiter had put plates in front of each of the Bunkers. "No, you hasn't anything to eat, either. I guess I'll go back," and he started to slip down from his chair. He was sitting between Violet and Margy.
"Wait a minute, my little man," said Daddy Bunker with a smile. "Don't run away so fast. You might get lost. Who are you and where do you live?"
"I live away far off," answered the strange boy. "My name is Tommie, and I come in a ship and I'm going out West, and I'm hungry!"
"Oh, maybe he's lost!" exclaimed Russ.
