seven o'clock in the evening
Mr. Jonathon Chambers left his house on Maple Street at exactly seven o'clock in the evening and set out on the daily walk he had taken , at the same time , come rain or snow , for twenty solid years . The walk never varied . He paced two blocks down Maple Street , stopped at the Red Star confectionery to buy a Rose Trofero perfecto , then walked to the end of the fourth block on Maple . There he turned right on Lexington , followed Lexington to Oak , down Oak and so by way of Lincoln back to Maple again and to his home .
