Stopping.

They was, was they ? And did they think I was going without seeing 'em ? MR. BUNT

No - but I think they wanted you to stay. JIM

I wisht I could, Bunty. Think of the folks fetch

ing us food to eat and Ellery a-bringing up that little hand organ fer you, and everybody so kind to us. You won't find 'em so everywhere, Bunty. Not by a long shot. Jim is now dressed as a bear, except that the bear's head is hanging like aa cowl on his back. How do I look ? MR. BUNT

Fine, Mr. Clown. JIM

Now, Mr. Bunt, get your little organ and swing it over my shoulder;; and you remember that new açt I taught you ? MR. BUNT
