"No, Mother. It was near shore," explained Russ, and he told how Zip had
given them rides.
"Well, come into the house, and get on dry clothes," said Grandma Bell.
"And, to make sure you won't catch cold--though I don't see how you can on
such a hot day--I'll give you some bread and jam!"
"Oh, goody!" cried Laddie, for he knew how nice the bread and jam made by
Grandma Bell tasted.
"I wish I'd fallen in," said Russ.
"Well, you may have some bread and jam also," said his grandmother,
laughing. "And we'll call one, two, three, four more little Bunkers, and
they may have bread and jam, too."
That afternoon and the next day the other little Bunkers had rides on the

Mrs. Bunker did not care to fish, but she went along to hold the smaller
children and keep them from falling out of the boat.
Several times Laddie, Russ or the other children saw Mr. Hurd, the
red-haired fisherman. Each time they asked him if he had seen the tramp
lumberman with the papers Mr. Bunker wished so much to get back, and each
time the fisherman had to say that he had not seen the man wanted.
Once Mr. Hurd came in his boat and showed Daddy Bunker a good place to
fish. Russ and Laddie went along also, and Russ caught two fishes. Laddie
got only one, but as it was bigger than either of those his brother
caught, Laddie felt very proud.
One day, when Laddie an
