ten o'clock
`` Yes , I fancy you did , '' he said with a smile . `` Now , I 'm for a few minutes ' sleep before morning train time . '' `` Yes , I guess we can all use a little , '' said Everett . All trooped off to bed , having been told by Everett first that they could sleep until nine , as there was no train out that Fernald could take until ten o'clock , and he would have time for breakfast before starting back for Washington . Rising time came all too soon , and the boys walked to the station to see Fernald off . Then they went back to the Everett house to get their rifles , and bid them goodbye , for they wanted to be off for their lean-to in the woods , there to plan out how to spend the week furlough they were depending on Fernald to secure for them . They found the lean-to as they had left it , and their knapsacks and groceries were retrieved from their caches in the trees , as safe and sound as they were when they were put there some days before .
