A Sequel to Toby Tyler. Illustrated. The story begins: Why, we could start a circus jest as easy as a wink, Toby, �������cause you know all about one; an������� all you�������d have to do would be to tell us fellers what to do, an������� we�������d �������tend to the rest. Yes; but you see we hain�������t got a tent, or hosses, or wagons, or nothin�������, an������� I don�������t see how you could get a circus up that way; and the speaker hugged his knees as he rocked himself to and fro in a musing way on the rather sharp point of a large rock, on which he had seated himself in order to hear what his companion had to say that was so important.
