one o'clock
the Saint was a first-rate sort . She had said that she did not want anyone to attend on her . She would , get herself a bit of lunch in the dining-room . Mrs. Latch allowed Esther to hurry on the dinner , and by one o'clock they had all finished . Sarah and Margaret were going into Brighton to do some shopping , Grover was going to Worthing to spend the afternoon with the wife of one of the guards of the Brighton and South Coast Railway . Mrs. Latch went upstairs to lie down . So it grew lonelier and lonelier in the kitchen .
