eight o'clock
So about six o'clock in the evenin ' she made me pack up and git out . I did n't have nowheres to go and only eight dollars and ninety cents left -- I 'd spent a dime telephoning so , before I got out I took and wrote Rod Bullard a note , and when I got outside I give a little nigger boy fifteen cents to take it to him . I told him in the note I was out in the street , without nowheres to go , and that if he did n't meet me that night and do somethin' for me I 'd jest have to come to his office . I said for him to meet me at eight o'clock at the mouth of Grayson Street Alley . That give me two hours to wait . I walked round and round , packin ' my baggage . `` Then I come by a pawnstore and seen a lot of pistols in the window , and I went in and I bought one for two dollars and a half .
