eight o'clock
Promptly Mr. Pike was there with the key to the handcuffs . As if Larry had the shred of a chance against that redoubtable aged man ! Wada reported that Larry , amongst other things , had lost a couple of front teeth and was laid up in his bunk for the day . When I met Mr. Pike on deck after eight o'clock I glanced at his knuckles . They verified Wada 's tale . I can not help being amused by the keen interest I take in little events like the foregoing . Not only has time ceased , but the world has ceased .
