seven o'clock
The last word was flung at the boy , who had not the least notion what it meant . But I saw him collapse as his master rubbed me out with his hands , and my first decided experience of the stupendous power of money was , that it had morally laid upon his back Trabb 's boy . After this memorable event , I went to the hatter 's , and the bootmaker 's , and the hosier 's , and felt rather like Mother Hubbard 's dog whose outfit required the services of so many trades . I also went to the coach-office and took my place for seven o'clock on Saturday morning . It was not necessary to explain everywhere that I had come into a handsome property ; but whenever I said anything to that effect , it followed that the officiating tradesman ceased to have his attention diverted through the window by the High Street , and concentrated his mind upon me . When I had ordered everything I wanted , I directed my steps towards Pumblechook 's , and , as I approached that gentleman 's place of business , I saw him standing at his door . He was waiting for me with great impatience .
