about one o'clock
What is the matter ? ' The person answered , ` What is that to you ? Stop the dead-cart . ' This , it seems , was about one o'clock . Soon after , as the fellow said , he stopped the dead-cart , and then knocked again , but nobody answered . He continued knocking , and the bellman called out several times , ` Bring out your dead ' ; but nobody answered , till the man that drove the cart , being called to other houses , would stay no longer , and drove away . The watchman knew not what to make of all this , so he let them alone till the morning-man or day-watchman , as they called him , came to relieve him .
