ten
o'clock
The afternoon passed , then the evening . Such supper as Bennett could eat was served according to his orders in the breakfast-room . Afterward he called Kamiska , and went for a long walk over the country roads in a direction away from the town , proceeding slowly , his hands clasped behind his back . Later , toward ten o'clock , he returned . He went upstairs toward his room with the half-formed idea of looking over and arranging his papers before going to bed . Sleep he could not ; he foresaw that clearly . But Bennett was not yet familiar with the arrangement of the house .
