s?" asked Russ. That
would be very dreadful, he thought.
"Oh, no, I won't be as poor as that," answered Daddy Bunker with a smile.
"We'll go to see Grandma Bell all right. But I would like to get those
papers."
He told the clerks in his office and some friends of his about his loss,
and they promised to be on the lookout for the tramp. Then Daddy Bunker
took Rose and Russ back home with him, along Main Street, in Pineville.
"Did you find them?" asked Mrs. Bunker anxiously, as she saw her husband
coming up the walk toward the house. "Did you get your papers?"
"No," he answered. "I forgot that I had given the old coat to a tramp, and
the papers were in one of the pockets," and he told his wife what had
happened at the real estate office.
"And we got a letter from Grandma Bell!" exclaimed Rose as soon as she had
a chance to speak.
"And we're going to see her--up to Lake Sagatook, in Maine," added Russ.
"No? Really?" cried Mrs. Bunker in delight. "Did you get a letter from
mother?" she asked her husband.
"Yes, it came to me at the office," he answered, giving it to his wife.
"Do you think we can go?" she asked, when she had read the letter.
"Why, yes, I guess so," slowly answered Mr. Bunker. "It will do you good
and the children good, too. We'll go to Grandma Bell's!"
"Oh, goody!" cried Russ, and he began to whistle a merry tune. Rose
started to sing a little song, and then she said:
"Oh, but I must go in and help set the table!" for she often did that, as
Norah had so much else to do at meal-time.
"All right, Little Helper!" said Mother Bunker with a smile. "We can talk
about the trip to grandma's when we are eating supper."
Some of the other children heard the good news--the loss of the real
estate papers did not bother them, for they were too little to worry; but
they loved to hear about Grandma Bell.
"And I'm going to take some fire-to'pedos!" exclaimed Laddie. "I'm going
to shoot 'em off for Fourth of July at grandma's."
Daddy Bunker shook his head
