Right down the road past Farmer Brown 's boy Reddy ran , and never once suspected he was being watched . A few minutes later another form appeared around the turn in the road . It was Bowser ! Yes , Sir , it was Bowser ! With a glad cry Farmer Brown 's boy jumped over the stone wall and waited . CHAPTER XXXVIII REDDY GOES BACK FOR HIS FAT HEN Joy will make a puppy of an old dog .
