noon
` Dear Sir Carte , ` Our party here intend to honour Hauteville with a visit to-morrow , and anticipate the pleasure of viewing the improvements , with yourself for their cicerone . Let Rawdon know immediately of this . They tell me here that the sun rises about six . As we shall not be with you till noon , I have no doubt your united energies will be able to make all requisite preparations . We may be thirty or forty . Believe me , dear Sir Carte , ` Your faithful servant , ` St. James . ` Carlstein bears this , which you will receive in an hour .
