a quarter to one
I never saw a grown man do it before , and I should have supposed that it would be most uncomfortable . Bland , however , seemed quite cheerful , and I admired the instinct which led him to attach himself to Moyne 's carriage . He made sure of being present at the outbreak of hostilities , since the meeting could neither be held nor stopped till Moyne arrived ; and he had hit upon far the easiest way of getting through the crowd which thronged Donegal Place . At a quarter to one Bob Power and his company arrived . Instead of marching to the scene of the meeting Bob halted and drew his men across the end of the street right underneath the club windows . Crossan , with another company of volunteers , joined him . Bob and Crossan consulted together , and Bob gave an order which I could not hear .
