Suppose we go to Grafton together ? '' `` All right ! '' Before the boys parted they made an agreement to meet at five o'clock the next morning , to set out on their walk to Grafton . At nine o'clock the blacksmith , giving a deep yawn , said : `` You 'd better be getting to bed , young feller . You 'll have to be up bright and airly in the morning . '' Kit was already feeling sleepy , and made no objection . Though it was yet early , he had found it hard work to get through the evening , as he could find nothing to read except a weekly paper , three months old , and a copy of `` Pilgrim 's Progress . ''
