ten o'clock in the morning
Only this Arthur gathered -- that Jerry would be happy if ` Mrs. Tracy had her diamonds again and did not know how they came to her . When this dawned upon him he laughed aloud , and kissing her hot cheek , said to her : ` I see ; I know , and I 'll do it . Wait till I come again . It was ten o'clock in the morning when he left Mrs. Crawford 's house ; there was a train which passed the station at half-past ten , bound for New York , and without returning to the park , Arthur took the train , sending word to his brother not to expect him home until the next day , and not to be alarmed on his account , as he was going to New York and would take care of himself . Why he had gone Frank could not guess , and he waited in much anxiety for his return . It was evening when he came home , seeming perfectly composed and well , but giving no reason for his sudden journey to the city . His first inquiry was for Jerry , and his second , if anything had been heard of the diamonds .
