two
o’clock
Pray tell me all . They 've not let me hear anything hitherto . '' `` One day finished the whole affair . We polled man for man till past two o'clock , when our fellows lost all patience and beat their tallies out of the town . The police came up , but they beat the police ; then they got soldiers , but , begad , they were too strong for them , too . Sir George witnessed it all , and knowing besides how little chance he had of success , deemed it best to give in ; so that a little before five o'clock he resigned . I must say no man could behave better .
