"Perhaps Jack is alone," thou| Bunny. "If he is I think I can get away."
He sat very still and listened.
Then he peeped out and saw Jack coming across the grass.
He was all alone. The dog was not running along beside him.
Bunny turned around and looked at Whitie.
"Good-by," he said. "I am going to hop out when Jack opens the gate.
"You have a very good home here. But I like my home in the woods much better.
"Sometime when you run away come and see me."
Just then Jack opened the gate and out jumped Bunny! Jack was so frightened that he dropped Whitie's supper on the ground.
He looked around to see what had flashed by him so quickly.
