about four o'clock
Finally , ` I commend myself , as a person in distress , and merely as such , to his honour , and to the protection of the ladies of his family . I repeat -LSB- most cordially , I am sure ! -RSB- my deep concern for being forced to take a step so disagreeable , and so derogatory to my honour . And having told him , that I will endeavour to obtain leave to dine in the Ivy Summer-house , * and to send Betty of some errand , when there , I leave the rest to him ; but imagine , that about four o'clock will be a proper time for him to contrive some signal to let me know he is at hand , and for me to unbolt the garden-door . ' * The Ivy Summer-house -LRB- or Ivy Bower , as it was sometimes called in the family -RRB- was a place , that from a girl , this young lady delighted in . She used , in the summer months , frequently to sit and work , and read , and write , and draw , and -LRB- when permitted -RRB- to breakfast , and dine , and sometimes to sup , in it ; especially when Miss Howe , who had an equal liking to it , was her visiter and guest . She describes it , in another letter -LRB- which appears not -RRB- as ` pointing to a pretty variegated landscape of wood , water , and hilly country ; which had pleased her so much , that she had drawn it ; the piece hanging up , in her parlous , among some of her other drawings .
