Three o'clock
Your affectionate Ed . Rivers . To Captain Fitzgerald . Three o'clock . We are returned , and have met with an adventure , which I must tell you . About six miles from home , at the entrance of a small village , as I was riding very fast , a little before the chaise , a boy about four years old , beautiful as a Cupid , came out of a cottage on the right-hand , and , running cross the road , fell almost under my horse 's feet . I threw myself off in a moment ; and snatching up the child , who was , however , unhurt , carried him to the house .
