noon
So sorry we sha n't see you again . I remember you said you 'd be in Manila the tenth of this month . Dad has changed his plans and wants to get back home , so we leave Manila by the _ Taming _ on the eleventh . We are going up to Dagupan by train and will reach Manila to sail by noon . So , if you do get to Manila on the tenth , I think it would be jolly to see you on board . We 'll go directly from the station to the tender . I 'll address this on the machine , so it 'll look most businesslike , for Mr. Wilkins , the clerk , is prone to gossip .
