about six o'clock
Mrs. Marchbanks marveled , but gave her orders . Arthur came out early , and brought with him his friend Archie Mucklegrand , and these two were bound also for the merry-making . Now Archie Mucklegrand was the identical youth of the lavender pantaloons and the waxed moustache , whom Desire , as `` Miss Ledwith , '' had received in state a year and a half ago . So it was an imposing cavalcade , after all , from West Hill , that honored the very indiscriminate pleasure party , and came riding and driving in at about six o'clock . There were the barouche and the coupé ; for the ladies and elder gentlemen , and the two young men accompanied them on horseback . Archie Mucklegrand had been at West Hill often before . He and Arthur had just graduated at Harvard , and the Holabirds had had cards to their grand spread on Class Day .
