"I know where you'll find him," spoke up Teddy.

"Where?"

"You'll find him hiding behind the hen house watching the parade
go by. He won't dare show himself after the way the clowns had
fun with him when the show was here before."

"Poor Uncle Abner! I must go over and see him after we have
called on Mrs. Cahill."

Arriving at Mrs. Cahill's, they found her out in the yard,
arrayed in her best dress in honor of their coming, and it was
a joyful meeting between the three. In a short time, however,
Teddy grew restless and decided that he would wander about town
and call on his other friends.

"I'll tell you what let's do, Teddy," suggested Phil.

"What?"

"You come back before parade time and we three will sit on the
front door step and watch the parade go by, just as we used to
do before we went into the show business. I'll run over to see
Uncle Abner in the meantime, and we will both be back here by
half-past ten. The parade will not get along before then."

"Yes, do, boys," urged Mrs. Cahill. "I'll have a lunch for you
after the parade. You will like that, will you not?"
