About nine o'clock
`` Be off now , Terence , and do n't drink anything strong . Stick to light stuff , and report to us directly you have seen him . '' `` Right you are , your honour , and be jabers , if he 's the man , we 'll see him at 345 , Nicholson Street , '' said Terence as he left . About nine o'clock Terence called at their hotel , in a very excited state , and quite out of breath . `` It 's Wyck , it 's Wyck , '' he said , sinking down on a chair and wiping his forehead . They gave him time to recover his breath , and then he told them his story . `` When I left your honour , '' he said , `` I went to the ` Gaiety , ' but he was not there , so I waited on the other side of the road , as I did n't want Dick to see me togged up .
