nearly six o'clock
Miss Gwynne began to arrange her hair . ` I declare I have forgotten how to do anything since Gladys has been with me . I can not put up this braid neatly . I must wait , and it is nearly six o'clock , and dinner at half-past . What does it matter how I look ? I daresay Miss Nugent will look twenty times as well , and her mother will dress her up to perfection . But he _ can not _ care for such a girl as that .
