nine o'clock
The one point I wished to clear up was whether Julie Rosier was actually within that house . But though I watched until I became half frozen in the drizzling rain , all was in vain . So I took a cab and drove to Clifford Street , to report my arrival to Count Bindo . That same night , when I got to my rooms , I wrote a line to the address Julie had given me , asking whether she would make an appointment to meet me , as I wished to give her some very important information concerning herself , and to this on the following day I received a reply asking me to call at the house in Burton Crescent that evening at nine o'clock . Naturally I went . My surmise was correct that the house watched by the stranger was her abode . The fellow was keeping observation upon it with some evil intent .
