a quarter past eleven o'clock
` Bring the bill-stamp with you , Mr. Tudor , ' said Jabesh , by way of a last parting word of counsel ; ` and let Mr. Scatterall sign it -- that is , if it must be Mr. Scatterall ; but I wish you would bring your cousin 's name . ' ` Nonsense ! ' ` Well , then , bring it signed -- but I 'll fill it ; you young fellows understand nothing of filling in a bill properly . ' And then taking his leave the infernal navvy hurried off , and reached his office in Somerset House at a quarter past eleven o'clock . As he walked along he bought the bit of stamped paper on which his friend Scatterall was to write his name . When he reached the office he found that a great commotion was going on . Mr. Snape was standing up at his desk , and the first word which greeted Charley 's ears was an intimation from that gentleman that Mr. Oldeschole had desired that Mr. Tudor , when he arrived , should be instructed to attend in the board-room .
