five in the afternoon
Frankly , Mr. Ewart , I do n't like the idea of you being left alone here during the next few days with a blind girl and an old man -- if you 'll pardon me for being so blunt . '' `` But you 'll be here , '' I said ; `` and I hope you will have something to say to us that will put nerves out of the question when you have examined Myra . '' Garnesk rose to his feet and laid a friendly hand on my arm . `` As soon as I 've seen what this place looks like at a quarter-past four to a quarter-past five in the afternoon I shall leave you . '' `` But -- good heavens , man ! '' I cried , aghast , `` you wo n't leave us like that . We hoped for so much from your visit .
