ten o'clock
`` It 's only January , and I do n't want the place until May . I 'll get it when I 'm ready for it . I had a good look at young Carter , and he 's got too square a jaw to run a successful neurasthenics ' home . '' I went to the pantry myself at ten o'clock and fixed a tray of supper for Mr. Pierce . He would need all his strength the next day , and a man ca n't travel far on buttered pop-corn . I found some chicken and got a bottle of the old doctor 's wine -- I had kept the key of his wine-cellar since he died -- and carried the tray up to Mr. Pierce 's sitting-room . He had the old doctor 's suite .
