ten o'clock
And if you refuse I shall be under the painful necessity of causing you a great deal of physical suffering . On the table by the side of your bed you will find writing paper , pen and ink . You will be so good as to write a letter to Miss Beatrice Darryll or to Mrs. Richford -- whatever you prefer to style her -- asking her to call upon you at the address which is stamped on the head of the paper . You are to tell Miss Darryll that she is not to say anything to anybody about the visit -- that she is to come at ten o'clock to-night or later . Tell her also that she is to bring the little bunch of keys that she will find in her father 's dressing-case . You may take it from me that no harm whatever is intended to the young lady . When the letter is finished you will be so good as to push it under the door of your room . ''
