nine o'clock
A camp-fire was lit just for the look of things , and around this the cadets gathered , telling stories and singing songs until it was time to turn in . Sleeping in a tent just suited the Rover boys and none of them awoke until sunrise . Soon the whole camp was astir , and each cadet took a good washing up at the brook . Breakfast was supplied by the farmer , and by nine o'clock the column was once again in motion on its way to Pine Island . `` Dot sleeping out in der air vos a funny dings , '' said Hans Mueller to Sam . `` I vake up der middle of der night in und find a pig mouskeeter mine toe on alretty ! '' `` Be thankful that it was n't something worse , Hans , '' said Sam .
