one-fifteen o'clock
One-fifteen o'clock was the time she said she would be out . But I thought maybe I might make a dollar or two for myself instead of waiting there all that time , and she would never know it . And now it is nearly two o'clock , and if I go back alone she will be raving mad , and I 'll get my discharge and no references , and my poor wife and six children will have to starve . So you will have to go with me and explain how it was that I was n't there at one-fifteen o'clock . '' `` My friend , '' I said , `` I am sorry for you , but I do not see how it would help you , should I refuse to go and you should , as you say , smash my head in . '' `` Do n't you worry none about that , '' he said . `` If I smashed your head in , as I could do easy enough with this wrench , I 'd take what was left of you up some dark street , and lay you on the pavement and run the machine across you once or twice , and then take you to a hospital , and that would be excuse enough .
