noon
It was after six in the morning when Dr. Warren left the peddler , with two motherly looking women to take care of him . Dr. Warren , after some conversation with the boys , returned to his home . `` As this is where we 're going to meet Tom and the other fellows , '' said Dick , `` I propose that we see if we can find a restaurant and have something to eat . Then we 'll try to hire a couple of beds and leave a call for noon . I 'm both hungry and fagged out . '' They found the restaurant without difficulty , and also succeeded in hiring two cots in an upstairs room over the restaurant . `` Reuben Hinman is becoming a good deal of a puzzle to me , '' murmured Dave Darrin , as the chums ate their breakfast .
