“Yes,” said Mabel. “I like him. I wonder if we will ever see him again?”
And they did, several times; and you may read about it in the book to come after this, which will be called: “Lightfoot, the Leaping Goat: His Many Adventures.”
You may well imagine how surprised Mrs. Farley and Patrick were to see the children come driving home with the long-lost Tinkle.
“We found him in the circus!” cried George.
“And he can do ever so many more tricks,” said Mabel, laughing.
“You ought to see him find the flag!” added her brother, and they began to make Tinkle do some of his new circus tricks. So while the children are doing that, and telling their mother how they found Tinkle again, this will be a good chance for us to say good-by to the trick pony.
