Six o'clock
And the man at the trap-door replied to my salute by a salute of mechanical precision . The question of passport did not trouble me . The French consul would know how to give me all the references required by the Russian administration . Six o'clock to-night , and it is already nine o'clock in the morning ! Bah ! When certain guide books tell you how to explore Paris in two days , Rome in three days , and London in four days , it would be rather curious if I could not do Tiflis in a half day . Either one is a correspondent or one is not !
