six o'clock
That , I knew , meant that I must get out of my ragged clothes . That I did , and packed them up -- all except Herky sombrero , which I wore .

The fast east-bound train had gone a little before , and the next one did not leave until six o'clock . They would give me half a day with my friends . When I returned to the hotel Dick was looking for me . He carried me off up-stairs to a hall full of men .
