three o'clock in the morning
When I woke up it was the first gray of dawn . Two men were standing side by side , looking at me under the wagon . One was Percy , and the other was Dinky-Dunk himself . He 'd got home by three o'clock in the morning , by hurrying , for he was nervous about me being alone . But he found the house empty , the team standing beside the corral , and me missing . Naturally , it was n't a very happy situation . Poor Dinky-Dunk hit the trail at once , and had been riding all night looking for his lost wife .
