"Bunny Brown and His Sister Sue Keeping Store"


"And a real mask, like the Pirates have!" cried Harry Bentley.
"Take 'em along," said Mr. Morrison. "They're only cluttering up my
cellar. I'm glad to get rid of 'em, and especially to good boys."
"We--we were afraid of you at first," said Charlie.
"Well, you needn't be any more," chuckled Mr. Morrison. "Just pay for my
window, when you get the money together, and we'll call it square!"
Talking, laughing gleefully, and wondering at their good fortune, the
boys hurried from the cellar. And they had another game that same
afternoon, with the balls, bats, gloves and mask that Mr. Morrison had
given them. Only Bunny knocked no more home runs, and Charlie's team
won, which was, perhaps, as it ought to be. And, best of all, no more
windows were broken.
It was quite an adventure for Bunny Brown, but it was not the last he
and his sister Sue were to have, for many good times were ahead of them
for the long vacation.


CHAPTER XVI

"Here, Bunny! Here, Sue!" called Mrs. Brown, one bright, sunny morning.
