twelve o'clock
I thought of my pleasant home at Oakleigh Park then , the quiet autumn streets , the bright fire in the dining-room and the cosy warm bed . Oh yes , I thought of it , but not with regret . I was out to win through , and all hell would n't have made me desert ! `` At twelve o'clock it was pretty serious . The Chief had the Second out to help with the pumps and sent me to call the old Third . It was his watch on the main engines , you see , twelve to four . Our berth was flooded .
