four o'clock
All are very astonished at the things they have seen and heard both in this house and upon Ken 's Island ; but they are too ill to take much part in them , and the young lady lies still in a dead trance . Doctor Gray says that he will save her ; but another man , knowing less , might think that she was dead . _ The same day . At four o'clock . _ They waked me from sleep at this hour to tell me that the men in the caverns below were beating upon the iron doors of the corridor , and appeared likely to force their way up to our part of the house . Captain Nepeen brought the news himself , and had a long talk with me . I found him a cultured man , and one who got a grip of things sooner than I had expected .
