Toby took the nuts offered ... and seated himself on a convenient stone to eat them, and at the same time to see all that was going on
around him. The coming of a circus to the little town of Guilford was an
event, and Toby had hardly thought of anything else since the highly
colored posters had first been put up. It was yet quite early in the
morning, and the tents were just being erected by the men. Toby had
followed, with eager eyes, everything that looked as if it belonged to
the circus, from the time the first wagon had entered the town until the
street parade had been made, and everything was being prepared for
the afternoon's performance.
