midnight
It appears that when Mr. Shafto heard of the smash , he went straight up to London , interviewed a lawyer , and learnt the worst . He returned in the afternoon , very tired and excited , broke the news to his wife , and had a serious fainting attack . My husband was sent for , but he found Mr. Shafto sinking . He died at midnight . He himself had wired for Douglas , who arrived just in time for the end . Poor boy ! He feels it terribly . ''
